Unable to store changes to disabled regions [#1883460]

When I select 'page - Stored in database' and process it, then disable one or more regions and save the layout with Layout file store mode set to 'Store in database, variable table' the disabled regions are not disabled.

If I add regions which default to disabled, it correctly saves them into the layout, but it is then not possible to disable them again.

I have ensured that the disabled regions are empty (In fact as a test I enabled a region and then tried to disable it having never added anything).

could you let me know what is the layout file name that you save to database? eg. (page.layout or page--blog.layout) ?

because for example you save page--blog.layout and disable x region to database, this means that only all blog type page will have x region disabled.

The other pages will fallback to page.layout and if in page.layout x region still available then theme will print it when you view other page aside from blog type.

This is for page.layout - I have not customised any specific files, everything is default apart from page.layout stored in database.

ok I'll look into it.

so basically
1. the layout is page.layout
2. you've stored the layout to the database
3. reopen the stored layout in the database
4. change things around and resave again
5. the latest changes don't get stored

is that the workflow? so I can simulate it.

The workflow is correct, except that I CAN move things around and enable regions, I simply can't disable them. It's almost as if disabled regions don't have a row so previously enabled regions, when disabled, are missed entirely during the save process and therefore, when re-processed, the previous row in the database is used.
