[comp.sys.mac.digest] DITL Question?

Dear Mac Programmers,

	What would cause a User Item in a dialog box to only respond
when it is clicked in a certain area of the User Item?  I have a 
User Item overlapping a Picture Item.  The User Item is in front, (according
to Resedit 1.2) of the picture like this:
                      +--------------------------+
                      | User Item in front of picture.
                      |                          |
                      | When clicked in this     |
            +---------|- - - - - - - - + area,   |
            |         | User Item does : User    |
            |         | Not respond    : Item    |
            |         | When clicked   : responds|
            |         | in this        :         |
            |         | region.        :         |
            |         |                :         |
            +---------|- - - - - - - - +         |
                      +--------------------------+

	Is it illegal to have items overlap in a DITL?  Isn't this the method
that is used to put the RoundRect over (or under) the OK button?
	If its of any importance, I am using Think C 4.0 on a Mac IIx with
8 Megs of RAM.

	Thanks in advance,
	Barry Kirsch
