there is a very small number of layers, to a first approximation there are "Hell" (below text), "Heaven" (above text) and "Form Control" layers. however all floating objects are totally ordered with a z-order number (with a limit of at least 2^31, stored as draw:z-index in ODF) and it's quite possible that there are some obscure bugs where the z-order numbers aren't updated properly; clearly if the ordering is different across save/re-load then that is a bug, please find out how to reproduce that and file it in bugzilla. _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
