In the report writer, the order of "instantiation" determines what gets printed first, to control overprinting. In the report designer, there's 'move to top', 'move to bottom' and 'move up'/'move down'. Seems analogous to me. IOW, putting this in the designer tool and not as a runtime property may have merit. > I've made a good amount of progress today, but progress with the wx- > layer is slow. It will take me a while before it's ready to commit. Ok.
