Dear Mac Programmers,

What would cause a User Item in a dialog box to only respond
when it is clicked in a certain area of the User Item? I have a
User Item overlapping a Picture Item. The User Item is in front, (according
to Resedit 1.2) of the picture like this:
+--------------------------+
| User Item in front of picture.
| |
| When clicked in this |
+---------|- - - - - - - - + area, |
| | User Item does : User |
| | Not respond : Item |
| | When clicked : responds|
| | in this : |
| | region. : |
| | : |
+---------|- - - - - - - - + |
+--------------------------+

Is it illegal to have items overlap in a DITL? Isn't this the method
that is used to put the RoundRect over (or under) the OK button?
If its of any importance, I am using Think C 4.0 on a Mac IIx with
8 Megs of RAM.

Thanks in advance,
Barry Kirsch
