The "Bring Closer" and "Send Farther" commands don't seem to work on 
buttons and fields in the background.  Is this a bug or a feature?  :-)   
I originally had a transparent button in the background and found it 
necessary to write text in a field in the same area.  When I created the 
field, I could no longer access the button.  Sending the field farther back 
and bringing the button closer didn't work at all.  Neither did moving the 
button out and then placing the button "on top" of the field.  Apparently 
the *old* order (button "underneath" field) was strictly enforced.  Weird.
