Hello,

As i want to edit the elements wihin a frame it would be very helpful that container/frame elements are automatically placed in the background layer.
Otherwise i will have to do that manualy.

Is it possible to place elements of a specified class always in the background layer?

Thank you for your help.

To be more precise i want to perform the to background fuctionality (Layer -> to background) over ADOxscript
Is there really no way to do that?

Thank you.

Dear Martin,

this can be achieved for all newly created elements by specifying the layer attribute in GRAPHREP with a negative value like this:

1CLASSATTRIBUTE <GraphRep>
2  VALUE "GRAPHREP layer:-1 sizing:asymmetrical ... "

Sincerely,
Vladimir Shekhovtsov

Thank you this is exactly what i needed.

Defining it  in the Development Tookit within the GRAPHREP the code looks following:
GRAPHREP layer:-1 sizing:asymmetrical
