The best solution for me is to have a list from all objects from the one in front and the last in back when the application runs. In the same time I will make changes in the objects in the running mode. So if i call to get the list with the new order.

Is that possible? Can make someone a plugin?

At run time, you can force the object order by repeatedly issuing ObjectToFront (from farthest desired object to nearest one) or ObjectToBack (from nearest desired object to fartest one).

As for the object list, I faintly recall a plugin that lists objects in a specified page, but can not provide exact details (perhaps one the many plugins from @hpw ?)

Hello and thank you,

The problem is that I try a project that I move photos in a rectangle and I change the short order of the photos. So I need to know anytime in the running mode the list order from the front to the back of the photos. These is the general problem. I have to tell you that all is in one page.

So an example is:

photo3.png (front)

photo1.png

photo2.png (back)

And if I change the photo1.png image to front the list change like that:

photo1.png (front)

photo3.png

photo2.png (back)

If you need more informations please ask me. I need to find a quick solution.

If all 3 objects are in the same x,y position, and you want to show one of them at a time, you might be better off doing HideObject/ShowObject commands.

If, for some reason, you need to keep a list of the relative order of the images, you can simultaneously maintain an ordered list ... perhaps using a (hidden) ListBox and ListBoxAddItem/ListBoxDeleteItem

Please provide more details of your requirements (with screenshots if possible).

You can originally place the photos to the left of the client area, where they cannot be seen during runtime. Then move them, one by one, onto the rectangle and into view. A list can be kept of the "current" photo by appending its name to an external file, and turning that file into a variable....

So you could use the MoveObject action instead of ObjectToFront

It seems your question is about how to keep track of your photos, and which is currently displayed, rather than how to display them...

You can use the ObjectToFront action or the Show / Hide Object actions or the MoveObject action... or any combination of them to display your photos. (The Show and Hide are probably best because they allow various transition effects.)

An easy way to keep track of your photos is to write and read their names in an external data file and then retrieve it back as a variable. Each time a photo is displayed, the data file is updated. Each time the data file is updated, it can be sent to a listbox or scrolling article / text file, etc.
