Text Box in backround

danialier — Tue, 14 Jan 2014 09:19:57 GMT

Hello !

I have two text boxes, one in front of the other. The one in the backround is much bigger than the the other one. That's ok. However when I click on the one in the backround it goes in front of the other Text Box so I cannot see the smallest Text Box.

My question is: how can I fix the biggest text box in the backround ?

Thanks!

Hi,

You can set the background of the larger text box to transparent. You do this by right clicking on the larger text box and selecting properties. Then within then 'general' tab select the transparency slider to 100%.

Hope that solves the issue.

On the Layout tab you can set the layer for each object. There are default layers Botton (-1), Normal (0) and Top (1) or you can set a custom layer for -127 through to 127 (I think!).

Set the smaller box on layer 2 with the large box on layer1, then the small box will always be on top.
