Insertion Point

[Sarah Reichelt]

I was struggling ith this myself, but finally found a method that 
reproduced the problem and then solved it.
In Geoff's test, the 2 groups do not overlap so the problem doesn't 
occur. Try this recipe:

1. create & arrange fields as follows:
	field 1
			field 2
			field 3
					field 4
	all insertion bars appear.

2. group fields 2 & 3 - all insertion bars appear

3. group fields 1 & 4 - insertion bars appear in fields 1 & 4 but not in 
2 or 3

4. move the 2&3 group to the front - all insertion bars appear again.

If a group is on top of AND overlapping another group, you will not get 
insertion points in group underneath.

Cheers,
Sarah
