Hi Cristi, The visibility of objects is determined by their ordering. An object can block the sight of another if it is in front of the other.
Send to Back puts the object at the last position in the ordering (behind all others) while send Backwards moves it one step to the back. The same holds for Bring to Front and Send Forwards. You can only notice the difference in effects when you have more than 2 objects overlapping. I hope this expains it clearly enough. Cheers, Roel ________________________________________ From: dia-list-boun...@gnome.org [dia-list-boun...@gnome.org] On Behalf Of Cristian Secară [or...@secarica.ro] Sent: 25 April 2010 16:39 To: dia-list@gnome.org Subject: what is the difference between Send to back and Send backwards ? (and same for front) In Options menu there are two pairs of quite the same things: Send to Back Bring to Front Send Backwards Bring Forwards What is the difference between the first two and the last two ? I need to know this rather for translation, but is always good to know ...
