Button gadget OVER editor gadget

[Joestes]

Hi there!

I was wondering if there is a way to put a button gadget on top of an editor gadget.

For example: I have an editor gadget and want a small button in the lower right corner.

If I create an editor gadget first and then a buttongadget over it, it will work until you use the editorgadget, then it disappears. But I want the button gadget to be always visibile on top of the editor gadget. I think the drawing order of the gadgets needs to be manipulated: the button gadget has to be drawn last!

Thanks in advance!

I'm sorry, forgot to mention. My platform is windows (cross platform is not an issue for me)

Repeat           
  Select WaitWindowEvent()      
    Case #PB_Event_CloseWindow
      Quit = 1 
      
    Case #PB_Event_Gadget
      Select EventGadget()
        Case 1
          Debug "OK"
      EndSelect 
  EndSelect 
  
Until Quit = 1
End
