PB is broken in a lot of ways, especially when it comes to handling groups.
There are several bug reports about it that go back a ways.

If you click the Layer header to view by layer order you'll see what you're 
looking for.

It looks like it's not for me - I use too much nesting of groups and
can't handle a non-hierarchical view:-)

Sorry, dumb question time - what is the "Application Overview" ?

Re: Project browser docs

2021-12-05 Thread J. Landman Gay via use-livecode
I found a lesson on it but it doesn't say what the dotted outline around 
some cards means.


A full explanation of the project browser should be in the user guide. I 
didn't think to check the lessons until today and newcomers may not even 
know the lessons exist. If the full documentation is too much to add to the 
guide, at least a link should be provided. Right now the guide only has a 
reference to a Project Browser section that doesn't exist.


I prefer the horizontal layout in the Application Overview, but i thought 
I'd give the PB another try now that I'm working on a simpler project. It's 
too unweildy for multi-stack projects with lots of controls.
