Issue: Widget overwritten.

[V.H]

Hi,

For example, I create 2 widgets (button and box), the box in top and button in bottom.

I need to change their position like picture 2, how can I do except delete and rebuild to changed their order ?

Hello @V.H​ ,

In the Screens menu, you can simply right click on the widget you want to put on foreground, and then select the "Move Up" option :

Please not that you can also do the same with background, if you select "Move Down".

Hope that this answers the question,

Thanks for your reply.

Does the API have this function? I want to do this movement in the firmware.

Hello,

Unfortunately this function is not implemented in the API.

But, there is a little work-around you can use if you want to do that :

• First, programmatically remove your widget from your container (in your case, the Screen)
• Then, insert your widget before/after the other widget to show it on foreground or background on your interface

The code could look like that :

void Screen1View::changeWidgetPosition()
{
        remove(box1);
        insert(&button1, box1); // insert the box below the button
}
