<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>What influences the order of the group layers? I have a map
with a base raster layer, a parcel base, and several annotation layers for
roads and POIs. The parcel base is the only layer that has a group defined. All
the others end up in the base layer. The problem I’m running into is that
the parcels are drawn underneath the base layer for some reason. What’s
even stranger is that I can move the parcel layer under the base layer, which
normally isn’t allowed. But if I try to move it back on top of the base
layer, then it gives me the warning that “this layer can’t go behind
base element.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>Though looking at maps.timberline.ca ka-map, It seems like
the Landsat image, which is the bottom layer, is listed first in the layer
order, which while it makes sense from a mapfile standpoint, goes against
common sense and most GIS conventions.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

box, which shouldn’t happen.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
