Graphic object manipulation

Post by BobM »

Couple of issues with v305:
1. Is there any way of overlaying a graphic image over another one? There doesn't appear to be a "send to back" function for graphic objects.
2. After inserting an empty page, I tried moving a graphic object to it, but it only displayed the box outline. Is this a bug?
Moving the graphic on the same page works fine.

Hi Bob,

Please install build 305 and then try to move the object between pages.

Regards,
Stefan

Both issues are seen when using v305.

Hi Bob,

For the first issue - simply right click an object and then in the drop-down menu select Order -> Frint to front/back

And for the second object - can we have a sample file please?

Regards,
Stefan

Right clicking the graphic doesn't show an Order option - just Cut, Copy, Paste (greyed out), Delete and Properties.

The sample file is attached.

This is for now only going to be available to annotations/comments not page content. If you have objects that are pasted as comments you can already change the order in the Editor.
2. After inserting an empty page, I tried moving a graphic object to it, but it only displayed the box outline. Is this a bug?
This is not yet supported in the Editor. As you noted it works within the same page. We are going to add moving between pages but it will be some builds away as it is not trivial to implement.

If posting files to this forum, you must archive the files to a ZIP, RAR or 7z file or they will not be uploaded.
Thank you.
