Hi all,
Just had a customer who requested that I add a button to the alarms page of their FTView SE application. The alarms page is wholly taken up by the alarm display object (navigation etc is done by separate displays that are docked to other parts of the screen.
I added a button, but no matter what I do, at runtime it is placed behind the alarm display. I shrunk the alarm display object down and placed the button half overlapping with the alarm display object, brought it to the front, send the alarm display to the back, and tested the display - and sure enough, at runtime the alarm display object is brought back to the front and covered the overlapped section of the button.
This happens with all objects - I tried it with some text and a rectangle too; same results.
Any idea why this is, and if there's anything I can do about it? FTView is v7 if that is relevant.
