Layers and Blocks

[Chameleon]

Hi I have 3 layers one on top of the other. The top is visible but the two underneath are hidden. This creates a slide effect when a tab is clicked at the top (it slides to the right and hides that layer but shows the next layer.) Everything works as planned but I wish to save this as a block. Is this possible / how do I save it as a block?
When I select it and save it it only saves the top layer and not the 2 beneath it.

cheers

To be able to help you with this, I need a copy of the project so I can see exactly what you have done.

Cheers Pablo,
I have uploaded the page to my test site www.theorbe.co.uk you can see what it looks like from there.
how can I get the .wbs file to you?
The construction is simple I have 3 layers named page 1 page 2 page 3
the layers sit on top of each other. Layer / page 1 is visible, layer 2 and 3 are not visible (check removed in object properties)
I have 3 shapes named for each page.
each shape has
"on click show with effect",
"on click hide with effect",
"on click hide with effect"
when I click on any of the shapes the page slides left and shows the next page.
all I am trying to do is save this as a block but it only saves the page that is not hidden.
hope this makes sense

Hi Pablo,

Ok I have a zip copy of my project on my website www.theorbe.co.uk with a download link on the first page. Hopefully when you click the link you will be able to download the file.

The reason why you cannot save this layout as a block is because cannot select hidden objects, so everything that is hidden will not be included in the block.
As a work around you can try to unhide each layer first and then save it.

Hi Pablo,

that has worked a treat. If I unhide the layers first and save as a block it saves it all. Then all I have to do is use the block in a project and hide the layers and it works as intended.

thanks,
