Can you place a text object on top of a container item

[helen_pip]

   Hello

I thought this would be easy, but alas it is not.  I want to place a text object on top of a container item, but every time I do, it adds the text object to the container items, which I do not want to do

Has anyone got any suggestions on whether this is achievable?

Thanks

Helen

Hi,

There is one trick. Place your Text Obeject near Container (Of course use different layers on Layout) and then resize it on the container.

HTH.

If you ctrl + shift it into position rather than drag and drop it will work for you

You can even change the position of tabs of the container to left, right or bottom , then you can easily place the text object on top of container.

Hello

Unfortunatley not possible to post screen shot at the moment.  However I may amend my post to state "How do I always show the Title in a Chart", even when there is no data to display, when using container items

If you have any advice on how to always show a chart title, even when data to show, then your help would be greatly appreciated?
