Hi,
I have a case where there are several edit parts that have overlapping
figures on the canvas. Each of these figures is a transparent figure.
Now I need to bring one of these edit part figures to front and make
only that edit part as selectable. I made only this editpart return tru
to isSelectable() call, and in the refresh visuals, if the edit part is
selectable, then I make it show in color. Otherwise, the other edit
parts are shown in a dull gary color. The problem is, if this edit
part's figure is burried under other figures, the visual looks
confusing. I would ideally want this edit part's figure to show in
color, without any overlap with other editparts' figures. If I make the
figure as opaque, that blocks out the figures that are under this
figure. however, the figures on top are still showing and overlapping.
Is there a way to bring the figure of the selected edit part "to top"?
thanks,
gayatri

This has been discussed quite a bit on this newsgroup. Just search for it.
