Question + small bug

Post by Richard Naninck »

Scott;

What is 'Zorder'?
Error: script is not 'running running' is just one too many. This shouldn't be hard to find it in the code I presume.

See attached image.

Fixed the 'running running' thing. Thanks.

Z-Order is the layer (think 3-d: x and y being the 2-d axis and Z being front to back) that the control is in relative to the other controls in the group... really the same as the 'layer' setting on a button or image control. The theme editor tries to do some layering fixups that are necessary sometimes. Since it's a 'warning' message, it's nothing critical. I output 'warnings' that should only show up if you are specifically tracing a component. It doesn't mean that there's something necessarily wrong, but if someone is having a problem, it's sometimes nice to know anything that is out of the ordinarily that may be a factor in another problem.

Aha, layering. Something minor but a bit annoying is the high layer number I always seem to get as standard when putting an image behind buttons to create somekind of border around groups of buttons. In the theme editer I get the buttons on top but as soon as I run the swremote, the buttons are behind the image. I have to edit the theme again to layer the image behind the buttons. It would be nice if images default to 1 in the layer. Unless the high layer number is a feature. But then maybe you could elaborate a bit on why that is...
The Zorder warning mostly appears once after adding stuff to my theme and it makes sense now why that is.

Don't know off the top of my head. Maybe a bug.
