When the user clicks on one of the textfields I want the date picker to display right underneath the textfield (everyone has seen this before). However.... my canvas control ends up being drawn UNDERNEATH (z-order wise) all the other controls. By this I mean the datepicker should "obscure" any controls on row under my data textfield... (there is a popup menu on the next row for example, and it shows up over my canvas) I have attempted using FRONT/FORWARD etc to no avail.... Nothing I seem to do works,' The strange thing is ... the bottom-most control on the form is a TEXTAREA... and my canvas DOES appear over it... but a popup menu and checkbox both appear over the canvas. _________________ Dave Sisemore MacPro, OSX 10.7.3 RB2011r3 Note : I am not interested in any solutions that involve custom Plug-ins of any kind Top Jym Post subject: Re: Canvas keeps moving to the backPosted: Sun May 06, 2012 11:00 am Joined: Sat Oct 01, 2005 5:19 pm Posts: 3026 That's what I'd expect to happen (on Windows). I switched to using a pop out window to stop this from happening. Couldn't find any other way.
