Message-ID: <53557@tut.cis.ohio-state.edu> Date: 1 Jul 89 18:18:09 GMT Sender: amra@tut.cis.ohio-state.edu Lines: 22 Here's what I want to do : 1. Place a button in a panel and enlarge the button and erase the button label. 2. Place a noneditable text field on top of the button. 3. group the button and text field and make the group box invisible. Now, when I test the above view, the button is only highlighted when I click within the frame of the button and outside the frame of the text. Is there a way for the button to receive the mousedown event through the noneditable text, i.e. whenever a mousedown event is clicked withing the text's frame? Even after the button gets clicked and highlighted, the button is redrawn after the mouseup event , but the text field is not redrawn ! I thought grouping view objects that are on top of each other means that all the objects will get the display message. Is there a simple work around for this problem? Nasir
