Hello,

I was wondering in a XAML file, how vmix processes the order for editing the titles?

I want top move some frequently edited ones to the top of the list and items I hardly change to the bottom (but still have the ability to change them in vmix).

Example, how would you make ValTop appear before TitleTop when you right click and edit the text in Vmix?

<mtl:TextBlockDesign FontStyle="Normal" FontWeight="Black" FontFamily="Prata" Fill="#FF000000" FontSize="52" Stroke="#FF808080" TextAlignment="Right" StrokeThickness="1" Text="999" Name="ValTop" Width="1051.76470588235" Height="741.326659854693" Margin="450,300,0,0" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Top" Effect="{x:Null}" Visibility="Visible" Panel.ZIndex="2" InputMethod.IsInputMethodEnabled="True" />

<mtl:TextBlockDesign FontStyle="Normal" FontWeight="Black" FontFamily="Prata" Fill="#FF000000" FontSize="52" Stroke="#FF808080" TextAlignment="Left" StrokeThickness="1" Text="Top Lot:" Name="TitleTop" Width="1051.76470588235" Height="741.32666108357" Margin="450,300,0,0" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Top" Effect="{x:Null}" Visibility="Visible" Panel.ZIndex="1" InputMethod.IsInputMethodEnabled="True" />

Thanks.

Have you tried to make a copy of the file (for safety) and then use a text editor like Notepad to reorder the lines? As long as you are careful not to add/remove any content it should work.

I have not tried this one myself, and am not near enough to my gear (mostly put away for the summer) to test it, but I have edited these files in the past many times to duplicate fields and make alignment exact...

It's all about whats on top yeah, which can be unfortunate for some layered graphics.

In this case that the elements must be layered different than the the natural from the code, isn't it possible to use ZIndex to control it or something like that?

Or you could use labels, bindings and invisible textboxes, that would also work. I've never tried the Zindex before.
