Selecting images behind an image in Xara Xtreme 5

[ArchersPromo]

Hi,

How can I select an image that is behind another without having to move the image in-front but simply selecting the one behind?

Thanks

Of course.

OK. I suspect you want to know how. Right?

Here are three methods for selecting a hidden obkect:

1. Hold down the Alt key and click a few times. The status bar will reveal what has been selected.
2. Switch to Outlines view (Window > Quality > Outlines) or move the View Quality slider all the way to the left.
3. Select any object then press the Tab key repeatedly until the hidden object is selected. Check the status bar. Tab cycles though all the objects on your page.

Nice comprehensive reply, Gary.

Did you know that it says "(released Julu 2012)" in your sig? Is the "y" broken on your keyboard?

I'm surprised nobody else pointed it out - it's been like that for ages. So long, in fact, I thought it was intentional!
