Assigning Widgets to Layers

Widgets now support layering. You can control how widget overlap and which shows up on top.

Overview:

All screen widgets now support the concept of layers. If you have a complex screen and things aren't layering properly where they overlap, you can adjust the layering.

This option is specified as an @ macro entered into the Label or Tooltip widget fields.

Usage:

@ Macro Specification:

* Set Layer Number - @SLN=# Assigns the Widget to that layer. Layer numbers can be any integer value. Lower numbered layers are closer to the front of the screen. Higher layer numbers push widget farther into the background. All widgets are assigned a default layer as follows:

• 30 - Box Widgets
• 20 - Labels, Pictures, and Lines
• 10 - All other widgets
