Hidden Text and leaders under imported model.
-
Hey Guys,
I am having trouble working out why in Layout my text and arrows [leaders] are being hidden beneath the imported model..... I have tried hiding the ground plane, moving back the model and bringing the text forward but still no luck. Probably something very simple but it's got me stumped!!Thanks in advance....

Hi Andrew,
I have no LO on this office machine so I'm just shooting in the dark but I believe that selecting and right clicking on any entities and going to the "Arrange" (?) menu item lets you bring things into front or back. As far as I remember, there is also a default menu item there where you can do this.
If it does not work, you may have found a nice bug and you know where to report it

Also check the layers you have the entities on. "Arrange" only arranges on a layer.
You'll have to look at your layer inspector to see if the image is on a layer
on top of your text that's on a lower layer. -
lightbulb!!!!
That seems weird actually considering most CAD listing within the program can be sorted alphabetically / numerically. I think arranging items on screen should be able to be manipulated in isolation; not based on the layer dialogue structure...
thanks for getting back to me on this, will go and try....

I tried this, too, and indeed the order of layers dominate the focus primarily and arranging the entities only secondarily.
I second that - layers are supposed to separate entities and to allow "arrangement" of them to show/hide elements not the order of display by the focus (is it called that way anyway?)
