Activex is alway on Top

[baki]

I have an Activex (www.ueye.com) in whitch the output of an Vidiocamera is shown. I want to draw a Canvas on it (for some overlays), but the ActiveX is always on top even if i explicitly push it to back. Do anyone know any Method to draw on it with CVI?

thanks

The problem here is the fact that the ActiveX control is not really a part of the UI panel but it behaves more like a floating child window that is always on top. Thus changing the order of your UI controls doesn't affect the ActiveX control. As much as I know there is nothing you could do against that behavior.

By the way: The NI Vision Development module for Measurement Studio and LabWindows/CVI supports overlays for video displays.

Sorry that I can't give you a better answer.
