That is correct, but because the Layers dialog displays the float at the top of the entire layer stack there is no visual indication in the dialog of which layer it belongs to. If we merely changed the display of the dialog so that the float is always displayed just above its source layer (actual functionality unaffected), this would make it more intuitive to the user. -- Stratadrake strata_ranger hotmail com -------------------- Numbers may not lie, but neither do they tell the whole truth. |
