I need to build a UI similar to the Finder or Windows Explorer, in which
there are icons that can be moved around, and selecting one brings it in
front of the others. To drag you just click and drag of course, and the
icon first come to the front then does the dragging action.
These icons
Hi Richard,
Why edit the group? Can't you just get all layer numbers of all
groups, take the highest number and set the layer of the target group
to to that number? Subsequently, get all layer numbers of of the
controls in a group and set the layer number of the target control to

Hi Richard,
I don't know why you're not getting a mouseUp at mouseUp time. As a
workaround, I suppose you could use something like this:
on mouseMove x,y
if sIsDragging is true then
cancel sMyMouseUp -- stop most recent mouseUp msg from firing

on MoveGroupToFront pGroup
local tTarget,tOwner,tLayer,tPeers,tRelayerGroupedControls

put the abbr id of grp pGroup into tTarget
put the long owner of tTarget into tOwner
put the layer of tOwner + 1 into
Many thanks to all who offered advice on this.
Eric Chatonet was kind enough to email me a nifty handler that solves
the problem very well, without having to set the editBackground (which I
admit made me squeamish when it seemed the only alternative).

Yep, tend to agree. I only use the editBackground trick while in the IDE and
for a tool. Sounds like you got
BTW, I think I would try locking and unlocking messages before and after
your edit group stuff and see if that doesn't clear up the mouseUp message..
