Why does my drop down menu keeping staying underneath other objects?
I have a master page designed and it includes a nav menu which has a drop-down menu.
On the Master page, when I place the objects and test it, the menu always appear correctly ABOVE all other objects.
But when I create a new page from the master, the drop-down menu always stays underneath any objects I place on that page.
I have rearranged and rearranged various objects and they always manage to appear on top of the other objects...
Not sure what else I can do. The menu is not editable since it's a masterpage element.
any ideas?

It's easy to fix just need to give the z index of the menu to 9999 and it would do fine.
Re: Why does my drop down menu keeping staying underneath other objects?
You can either set add a z-index to the menu or add the menu to a page header and set it to 'in front of content'

Awesome! Thanks wwonderfulwwonderfull wrote: ↑Mon May 30, 2022 6:49 am It's easy to fix just need to give the z index of the menu to 9999 and it would do fine.
Re: Why does my drop down menu keeping staying underneath other objects?
I found the z-index in the page's html view but I can't edit it there.
or is there another place where I can edit the z-index?
Still searching...
it's not in Page Properties panel.

You can change the object order via the Arrange tools or object manager.

You can change the z-index value by changing the order of the objects...

Hmmm.... I know how to drag the files in front of others, but where can I edit the z-index value? There's no place to do that anywhere.
Re: Why does my drop down menu keeping staying underneath other objects?
You cannot directly edit the z-index, because the value depends on the context of the object. For example, whether the object is on a layer, layout grid, etc.
In absolute layouts, the z-index value is determined the order of the objects on the page. The order of the objects can be changed with the Arrange tools.
But of course, you can also override it with custom CSS.

Re: Why does my drop down menu keeping staying underneath other objects?
Hmm.... maybe that's the issue then. The arrange tool works fine on the MasterPage. But when you are working on the page that the Masterpage was applied to, the menu cannot be edited at all. it cannot be moved forward or backward.Pablo wrote: ↑Mon May 30, 2022 8:06 pm You cannot directly edit the z-index, because the value depends on the context of the object.

The layer is added onto a page that uses the menu from the master. You cannot rearrange the menu when it's from the masterpage( because the master page cannot be edited. )
Re: Why does my drop down menu keeping staying underneath other objects?
By design, a master page is always in the background, otherwise you would not see the content of the page.
That is why I suggested to use a page header for the menu, then you can set it to 'in front of content'

Re: Why does my drop down menu keeping staying underneath other objects?
Ah, I see. I was wondering about that. Okay. Now that I know how to use Page Headers. Thanks again.

Yeah, I ended up coming across that.wwonderfull wrote: ↑Mon May 30, 2022 3:50 pm Look on this thread also. The problem maybe a bit similar.

I was thinking I needed to edit the html but couldn't find the place to do that.

If you can give a link or submit a demo, than that would be more helpful to understand and solve.Yeah, I ended up coming across that.

Re: Why does my drop down menu keeping staying underneath other objects?
WYSIWYG Web Builder is not an HTML editor. The HTML does not exist until you publish the page, so you cannot directly edit the code.I was thinking I needed to edit the html but couldn't find the place to do that.
