Double-click priority setting for grouped member

[reid.booth]

I've got a custom stencial with a shape that has three member sections
on it: top, mid and bottom. At the moment when I double-click the
shape to add some text, the bottom member is selected by default. I
want to reset the priority so that the middle section is selected. If
I use the Member First command in the Behaviour dialog box, I lose the
grouped charactoristic that I need to retain (When I'm in a drawing, I
need to single-click the shape and move it around as a group.) Help?
Thanks

Hi Reid,

It's about z-order. The top-most sub-shape in your group will take the text,
if the group's text is turned off (Format > Behavior)

Just sub-select the sub-shape at the top of your group and Bring To Front
(Ctrl+F)
