    Default Offset creation order

    We just upgraded to 2006 and I am finding that when you offset an oject (line in this case) it keeps the creation order of the source line. Is there a variable or option to turn this off?

    do you mean like the 'bring to front' 'send to back' sort of thing?

    Hi

    If I am understanding correctly ( highly unlikely ), try the following thread...

    Object sorting - where did it go?

    Plus, maybe look at the system variable DrawOrderCtl

    Have a good one, Mike
