Hi all,

I have a GUI designed in HTML compose (7.7.03) that contains several drop down lists with multiple selections. The issue is that when a multiple dropdown menu is expanded, its list of items is overlaid(covered) by the other dropdown lists beneath it.
I have tried the following things to bring the menu up to front:
1/ Changed the Z-INDEX.
2/ Used property options "Bring to front" and "Move forward".
3/ Deleted and recreated it.

Thanks for your help.

Would it be possible to use listboxes instead of dropdown list? Also, the order of the xml nodes for the dropdownlists may be the cause of this. You may be able to rearrange the xml to solve your issue.

Yea, I just confirmed it. The order of the drop down input control xml nodes matter (basically the order you created the dropdowns). I would backup the html file and then reorder the xml nodes so that the dropdowns closer to the top of the page appear first.

BTW This problem only seems to happen when the dropdown is multiselect and multiple values have already been selected and the user is going back in to change the values.

Thanks, J. I got it resolved now by playing around with the right click options: "Bring to front" and "Send to back" on the controls. By doing this, it might change the order of the input control of XML dropdown nodes as you suggested.
