David. I could not understand your issue, so I made the controls you mentioned. The thing that matters is not the lockLoc property, but rather the “opaque” property.
A group of controls is just a, er, group of controls. The “group” itself can, however, take on a life of its own if, as in this exercise, something like the opaque property is set. In that case, dragging a control with a lower layer number will disappear behind the group rect, regardless of whether or not there is a child control in front. Am I getting your problem at all?
