ReorderLayers

$image\bltlrgss.gif$ Editions $image\bltlrgss.gif$ Related Transactions $image\bltlrgss.gif$ Example

The ReorderLayers transaction moves the specified layer to the new position within the given page. This transaction defines in what order items are going to be rendered for display, printing, and rasterizing. Note that the active edit layer is always rendered on top of the other layers on display, but you can specify the position you want it to be in when it is inactive.

Type XTYP_EXECUTE

Syntax [ReorderLayers(docwinID, layerID, layerPosition, <pageID>)]

Parameter	Data type	Values	Meaning
docwinID	DWORD	0 \| docwinID	active \| specific
layerID	DWORD	identifier of the layer to reorder
layerPosition	WORD	1 \| 2 \| ... \| last layer position	new position (where 1 is on top, 2 is next, and so on)

Remarks

If "Old Style Render" is enabled in the Imagenation INI file, layers are rendered in a different order--rasters first, and then vectors. Otherwise layers are initially rendered in the order in which they were placed on the page.
