Bring label to front not working
Hello Experts,
I have a form
A label is on this form.
I want this label to always be on top of a command button.
I go to Arrange>Move To Front but the label does not move to front.
I then tried to attach the label to the command button and selected the command button and chose Move to Back and chose Move to Front for the label but that didnt help either.
The label does appear on top on hover though.
How can I keep the label on top all the time? Set focus?
- I think you should be able to format the label itself in such as way as to simulate what you'd see in the button, e.g. a background color and border, maybe even a raised appearance. Try it and see. It may be the only way to implement the functionality you need.
- XPS35Iron ContributorWhy do you want a label on top of a command button?
- Tony2021Steel Contributorhi, because the label is a different font and smaller font size than the command buttons font size. Also, the command button is too small and I do not want to make the button larger.
- George_HepworthSilver ContributorI'm confused. The command button is small and you don't want to make it bigger, but you also want a larger label over the top of the button? Doesn't that take up as much space as the button would if you simply increased its size?
What else is involved here? Some detail seems to be missing.
