PeteMaintain : sending a grid to background
Hi,
I want to do the following :
When a user pushes a certain button , i show an large image but when i show it , the underlying grid stays on top , is there a way to avoid this?

Tony AHi Pete,
Could you set the grid lines off during the display of the image?
WINFORM SET form.control.GRIDLINES TO 0
Must have a look at maintain one day ..........

Maintain WizardMorning Pete
I'm afraid I cannot make a button / image appear on top of a grid. I do not believe there is any way to do this. The only thing I came up with was to hide the grid and show the image. Then if the user clicks on the image, hide the image and show the grid:
-* To Show the image
Winform set form.grid.visible to no;
winform set form.image.visible to yes;
-* to reverse the process
winform set form.grid.visible to yes;
winform set form.image.visible to no;
