Hi, I have built a website but I am having trouble seeing certain items? eg: if I add a graphic item the full size of the page, leave the colour empty but add a border. Then add a few items on top and select to bring items forward, backward or whatever is needed. But then I always seem to hit the same problem with one of the items. It disappears behind the full size graphic item on the page and it’s a nightmare trying to select it again to remove it. The problem is probably staring me in the face but I can’t see it.
If you have an element that can’t seem to be brought to the “front” of
other stacked elements, then it’s most likely a table-based layout
element (drawn while the Big Blue Button was off, or having its Layer
checkbox un-ticked in the Inspector), while those other elements are
layer-based CSS-positioned boxes.
If you do as Thomas suggests and enable the Page view in the Site
panel, you will be able to see this element in that list. Once you
have selected it in the list, you can check the Layer checkbox and
suddenly you’ll be able to maneuver it above other layered elements.

… aaahh and forgot to mention that a proper naming of your item1, item2 and so on into banner-image, left-text-column … or whatever will help you to refind your stuff too.
