draw order

I am bumping up against a problem with the draw order in mythui. As I
understand it, elements are drawn in the order defined in XML. I'm trying
to add a shape behind an imagetype inside a state, but for some reason, the
shape is being drawn over the imagetype.

I'm using a slightly modified version of video-ui.xml from arclight. The
rest of the theme is unmodified.

Code is here: http://pastebin.com/X6jmZyqi

Am I doing it wrong? Relevant code starts around line 565.

Hi Peter,

I have not tried this, but try adding the <shape name="CoverBox"> also into
the "active" part of the statetype and make it alpha=0.

cheers, Elkin

Hi Peter, i haven't look at your code, but if an'element is defined in a previously drawn layer (it could be the active status, against the selected active)
it keep the position firstly defined.
I mean if the imagetype is already drawn, the shape will be over it.
You should add a dummy shape when the imagetype id drawn first time.

bye
Federico
