I sometimes use large GUIs on parts of the screen, for special effects. Normal 'displays' are always put on top of this, which is what I like. However, DisplaySpeech commands are printed below all GUIs and thus may be illegible.

Original description:
25-Sep-04 14:04 - strazer set state to Awaiting fix (From the to-do list.)

To-do list entries:

* set z-order of overlays, to allow them to be interspersed with GUIs (and for speech
to appear on top of an existing GUI)
Set default z-order of speech (so that it can always be displayed on top of guis
if they want)
* proper z-order support for overlays

If you would like to support this suggestion, add your comment below indicating why you think it would benefit AGS, and what advantages it would give you personally.
*SIGH* Due to spam, the tracker comment facility has been disabled until I get a chance to add user authentication. I hate the internet and all who spam on it.


If you are a moderator you can set the status of this item, for example to verify a bug or suggestion. Remember, the state of a bug/suggestion goes like this:
  1. user submits the report, starts off unverified.
  2. as moderator, you replicate the bug yourself, or make totally sure that it is a bug in AGS rather than bad scripting, and then set the status to awating fix
  3. I (CJ) look at all bugs set to 'Awaiting Fix', and will attempt to fix them in due course. Once I have fixed a bug, I set it to Implemented.
  4. Once on Implented, the original user who reported the bug should check that it is indeed fixed, and if so change it to Complete.
  5. CJ may decide that a suggestion request, for example, is not do-able in the near future, in which case it will be set to Postponed to indicate that it will not be resolved soon.
  6. If a bug turns out not to be a bug in AGS, or a suggestion is unfeasible or already implemented, it will be set to Rejected.
  7. The Work On state is just used by CJ to keep track of which things he is working on but that have not yet made it into a public release.
