Overlapping Components
When you drag a new component from the Component tree onto an existing Viewsheet component, you will see the 'Layout Option' dialog box:

The following options are available:
• 'Move component right' places the new component in the first available column to the right of your original placement (same row).
• 'Move component down' places the new component in the first available row below your original placement (same column).
• 'Place component into tabbed interface' creates a tabbed interface with each component in its own tab.
When you move or paste an existing component onto another existing component, you will see a slightly different version:

The following options are available:
• 'Move component here' permits the components to naturally overlap each other.
• 'Place component into tabbed interface' creates a tabbed interface with each component in its own tab.

To move an overlapping component behind other components, right-click the component and select 'Send to Back' from the context menu. To move an overlapping component in front of other components, right-click the component and select 'Bring to Front' from the context menu.
