Arrangement Levels

  • There are imaginary levels of elements to decide which item to display in terms of overlaps. You can change these levels and set an item to display in front of the screen or at the back. Starting with the state below;

Send Backward

  • This would move OMMA Test Content one layer back.

Bring Forward

  • This action would get the OMMA Test content one layer front (opposite of above).

Send to Back

  • Sending Back sets the position of layer at the rear-end of layers.

Bring to Front

  • This action would get the OMMA Test content to the front again. (opposite of above).
