Label Legend Manager not displaying correctly

[ChollyO]

I've created a Label Legend in the Manager, it looks like this:

 

 

Yet when I assign it to a fixture on my drawing, it displays like this:

 

...where the fields are hidden behind the container that I have picked.

 

The fields are clearly shown in the Manager as being on top of the container, yet when it is assigned to a fixture on the drawing, the container always ends up on top blocking all the fields.  I have gone into the Manager and attempted a CTRL-B on the container and CTRL-F on the fields and it makes no difference, the container always ends up on top.  

 

Any ideas on what's going on here?

Can you share the Label Legend in a file and post it here?

Here you go.  I've stripped down the file so that it just contains a fixture and the relevant containers.

The Circle symbol in the Label Legend layout window acts as a guide only. Because it is attached to the User field, then the User Field needs to be sent to the Back using the Send Command. This will then reveal the other two fields above it.

A common misconception about the Containers in the Label Legend layout is that what you do with them here will affect how they look when attached to a lighting device. It will have no effect at all. They are only there to help you space your Text Fields.  Many users try to add lines and other 2D geometry to no avail.

 

Here is your file back with the problem solved. I hope that makes sense.

Makes sense and thank you for the explanation and fix!  Much appreciated!
