Group Conundrum Take 2 (Ignore first post)

[Terry Judd]

Hi Chip - I've struggled with this before and from memory you can't usually
do it in a single step. You essentially have to reorder objects or groups
(by moving them to the top of the group) in such a way that the object/group
you're interested in is forced down through the layers into the desired
position. So in your example I think you would...

1. set the layer of btn "fred" to 2
2. set the layer of grp "fruit" to 2
3. set the layer of grp "meat" to 2

...ending up with your desired layering sequence.

HTH,

Terry...
