  • 1.  PAW does not seem to allow selectors in front of images

    Posted Fri February 14, 2020 10:47 AM
    Trying to determine if it's a bug or a feature.  On a PAW Workbook tab I bring in an image and make sure it's order is 1.  After bringing in a view I drag one of the context dimensions up to create a selector.  The selector gets put behind the image and therefore does not appear on the page.  No matter what is done with the orders, the selector can not be brought forward to be viewable.  Separately, if you bring over a shape and make the shape solid, create the selector and everything works out ok.  Issue appears to be how images are 'placed'.

    Feature?  Flaw?  Work around?

    Hi Dean, 

    I gave it a try in Workspace release 2.0.48. I was able to get the selector visible & selectable in both cases: on the left in the screenshot you can see it on top of an image (the IBM logo) and on the right on top of a shape. The order of the objects on the left is 1 for the image and 2 for the selector and on the right is 3 for the shape and 4 for the selector.




    Let me know if you are still having an issue and perhaps share your image URL?

    I think I may have found a resolution but I think there might be a bit of a bug here.  I find that if I drag a dimension from the context of the view to be a selector, I must drag it to an area that isn't covered by the image.  Then I can drag it on to the image and it appears in front.  However, if I have the view on top of the image already and perform the drag directly on to the image, the selector goes behind and can not be brought forward.  Makes creation of tabs a bit more complicated only in that I can't center the image first and put objects in place.  I need to move the image to the side, populate my screen, drag selectors over to the image, center the image, move the selectors in to final placement.  Is this what anyone else is seeing?
