What's the secret to displaying text on the MouseOver layer?

[jclements]

I know I should know better ..... but I can't locate any info about this in the Summary Manual's documentation.

If I put text on the MouseOver layer, then draw a rectangle on the MouseOff layer directly below the text (which has a footprint larger than that of the text), and then assign a link to the rectangle, shouldn't the text by displayed when the rectangle is moused-over?

My understanding is that so long as an object on the MouseOff layer has a link assigned to it, then anything directly above it the MouseOver layer which is overlapped by 50% or more will be displayed.

I don't believe the Helpfile explicitly states that there is an exception for text on the MouseOver layer.
