[Resolved] Battle command window

[Angel_FX]

How can I make an image appear behind the battle commands (text)?
I already added some lines of script in Window_Base to show the picture. Like this:

  def draw_border2(x, y)
    border2 = RPG::Cache.picture("Border2")
    cw = border2.width 
    ch = border2.height 
    src_rect = Rect.new(0, 0, cw, ch)
    self.contents.blt(x , y - ch, border2, src_rect)    
  end

The picture always show above the commands, How can I prevent this?
Can anyone help me with this, please?

try drecrease its z (border2.z = x)

Bitmaps don't have z, just make sure you call that method before the commands are updated.

Thanks for the help.
It worked... but only for the last command.

I think this happens because I use ccoa's CBS and it uses a different script for drawing the commands, drawing each command at a time. Here is the script:

class Window_BattleCommand < Window_Selectable
# -----------------------------
  attr_reader :commands
# -----------------------------
  def initialize(actor, width)
    @actor = actor
    @item_max = @actor.battle_commands.size
    super(0, 0, 220, (@item_max + 1) * 32)
    self.windowskin = RPG::Cache.windowskin("")
    self.x = -9999
    @column_max = 1
    
    @commands = @actor.battle_commands
    if @commands == []
      name = actor.name
      print("Error: " + name + " must have at least one battle command.")
      exit
    end
    self.contents = Bitmap.new(width - 32, (@item_max + 1) * 32)
    refresh
    self.index = 0
  end
# -----------------------------
  def refresh
    @item_max = @actor.battle_commands.size
    @commands = @actor.battle_commands
    self.contents.dispose
    self.height = (@item_max + 1) * 32
    self.contents = Bitmap.new(width - 32, (@item_max + 1) * 32 - 32)
    
    for i in 0...@item_max
      draw_item(i, normal_color)
    end
  end
# -----------------------------
  def draw_item(index, color)
    self.contents.font.color = color
    rect = Rect.new(4, 32 * index, self.contents.width - 8, 32)
    self.contents.fill_rect(rect, Color.new(0, 0, 0, 0))
    draw_border2(15, 168 + 21)
    self.contents.draw_text(rect, @commands[index])
    draw_battleface(@actor, 90, 100)
  end
# -----------------------------
  def disable_item(index)
    draw_item(index, disabled_color)
  end
end

And this is the final result:

Can you still help me?

Please, I need someone's help. I'd really like to see this fixed

Post the full script you are using or send me it i know the problem.

I believe its to do with Priority and Layering because take for example.

      draw_actor_face(actor, x - 60 ,y + 160)
      draw_actor_name(actor, x, y + 80)
      draw_actor_class(actor, x + 144, y + 80)
      draw_actor_level(actor, x, y + 100)
      draw_actor_state(actor, x + 90, y + 100)
      draw_actor_exp(actor, x, y + 120)
      draw_actor_hp(actor, x + 200, y + 100)
      draw_actor_sp(actor, x + 200, y + 120)

Since

draw_actor_face

is the first it means that its drawn first and anything using the

draw_actor

code after it will be done over the top and as follows, so thats the problem but i will need to look at it to be fully sure.

I fixed it just now! It was pretty simple.
I just had to erase one line:

self.contents.fill_rect(rect, Color.new(0, 0, 0, 0))

Thanks to all of you who tried to help me.
