Fix bug of images always staying on top of something

martinweka

If an image is used as background for areas (so you put stickies on top of the image) it happens that the image is "always on top" (stickies fall behind it), when the image is not recognised as part of the area (e.g. it is bigger, or you have different areas on the image.

This makes it very hard to combine areas and images. Stickies should per default be on top of images (I cannot think of a use case we would want the to be covered, unless we want to cover the area which is already a built-in function in the area outline). Who still wants stickies underneath could just set these as "send to back"?

Thanks!

Hi @martinweka ,

I am trying to recreate the case you are mentioning. If an item is not absorbed by an area, it won't act like it is inside the area. So one solution is making sure the image is inside one area, so that you can arrange the image alongside stickies as they are absorbed by the area. You can organise the items with send to back and send to front inside the area.

If you want, you can have a separate image for multiple areas and you can send the image back so that the areas and the other elements (like stickies) the area absorbs are on top of the image. In this case, you cannot send the elements inside the area to the back of the image, but you can send the whole area behind the image if you wish to. As far as I understand this should fix the issue you are mentioning - please let me know if I misunderstood something.
