How to overflow images over a Web Object

[avalonlive]

Hey guys i want to overflow an image over my web object but always it hide the images behind, how can i put the image over web object?

You can't. The Web object is windowed, and will stay always on top of other non-windowed objects on the page.

I'm not certain what you mean by 'overflow'...

One way would be to use the new DialogEx.Show() feature to pop up images over the web object. These can be activated in numerous ways: buttons, hotspots, timer - imagination prevails on that.

If you want the image to replace the web object, you can script the web object to NOT visible.

Yes, you could use the new DialogEx to show an image on top of a web object, hiding parts of it, as it won't be hosted on the same page. But then the objects of the page would stop responding to mouse clicks and key presses, until the dialog with the image is dismissed, wouldn't it?

Just tried to cover a transparent web object partially with a dialog, and it works.
