I think this should be pretty easy to do but I haven’t had much luck with z-value positioning.
Does anyone have a demo of how to overlay text on top of an image in the legacy interface?
Something like this:
Ideally, I want to overlay a button on top of a photo.

Yes. Will mock something up later if you need but short answer:
Make the top thing absolute positioning and high Z level. (Find in advanced properties.)
Thanks. I’ll try that.
Here’s my latest attempt: Thunkable
Edit: Oh, I think that did it @catsarisky.
A little better: Thunkable
Woo! Got it:

There ya go!
Those edge offsets are relative to the container they’re in, so you can get clever with putting things in the same container as well. That’s how I got Poodles to Paris to overlay all those labels and images.

I did figure that out but it took a moment. I’m surprised I needed a negative value for the bottom property. I would have thought it works more like the padding property.
Interesting - that doesn’t match my memory from using it a couple weeks ago…
Oh, it works the same with a positive number. I probably shouldn’t be using negative numbers there.
