Thanks Greg
I think you're right. I might add a request to the bug tracker that
master pages can allow showing objects above , say as an option, as I
think it would be handy. In our case, we have lots of pictures with
different transparencies, near to the logo that makes up the header on
the master page. But these transparent objects are obscuring the logo
which as to be underneath if we use master pages.
