- I do the "send backword" but do not get the desired result, why?
On the canvas, each object has its own z-order. When you want an object to show under another object, you can use the command "Send Backward", which would place the object backward one step. But as we know, the distance of z-order between two objects may be more than one, so you would get the above problem. For this condition, please do "Send Backward" several times or use the command "Send to Back", which will place the object on the lowest level.
