I'm using a TP1200 screen, I put the faceplate on a page, and a text field on top. When I simulate, or load the program in the TP1200 the text goes under the faceplate. I tried putting the text in a different layer but still the faceplate is always on top. How do you put something over a faceplate?? I added a printscreen of the problem, on the left is how it shows on my editor, on the right the simulation and the real screen. Attachment Untitled.jpg (223 Downloads)

I tryed to put the text in a layer above the faceplate this also doesn't work. In the editor it works fine, untill I simulate the program or download it to the real screen.
