Hi Sue --

All the images in Squeak can overlap.

So they should paint their rockets separately from their backgrounds -- these should be separate objects. Then just picking up the rocket and putting it on the background painting will get the rocket "on top".

Cheers,

Alan.

I am a primary teacher who has introduced her class to Squeak. My kids have made cars move around the screen, and want to make rockets move on a background. I have "Powerful Ideas..." but can't work out what to do to assemble their painted backgrounds and their rocket object together. Do I put them both on a playfield? How do I get them there and alter the size of the playfield. I can see what to do with the scripts when I have them in the same environment. Sorry about this super-basic question but can't find another forum to assist. Happy to receive suggestions for a more suitable discussion group if there is one for newbies with etoys. Sue
