Enhanced management of the ordering of objects:
- New parameter for mimics (in the Template tab of the Window Properties dialog) to specify the priority for animation commands (of the mimic or of the template). By default (and for compatibility): the latter.
- Retaining the sequence when a symbol is created.
- Retaining the sequence for object animation commands when the order of objects is changed (using the Arrangement tools).
- Retaining the sequence for object animation commands when the object’s properties dialog is validated or the animation is changed by VB/VBA. (Before that correction, when an object was changed its command animations were systematically set to the beginning of the sequence. The mimic had to be reloaded to put the command animations back into the right order.)
- Retaining the sequence for the objects in a group when it is ungrouped.
- Retaining the sequence when they are grouped. (The order is worked out from the reference object.)
