    if you add an image as child of mission that image cannot be moved
    it seems that there is a bug where the layout group freeze direct transform of children of group members.

    additional bug:
    duplicate text twice
    it will be under each other as if layout groupd acted on children of its children
    (it shouldn't)

    additional bug #2: disable the layout group and try moving children of children = you can't
    but you can move direct children.
    so in summary the bug is that children of children are erroneously frozen in transform by a layout group

    extra bug: when the layout group is deleted the children of children are still frozen!
