Questions about modding.

First, I don't consider myself a mod by any stretch of the imagination but I just got Tycho's analogue clock http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=208895 to work with GWX3/WS Magui.

At first I didn't get the seconds hand but that is apparently fixed (just a slight offset from center but nothing that throws it off). This fix got me interested in looking at other mods and how to get the bits and pieces that do work with my mod combo.

Now this gets me to menu_1024x768.ini.

I am looking at CAWS 1.6 and I am trying out varius components that will work without breaking the game as it is now. First are the 3 colour filters in the OBS periscope. I got them to show but they start out hidden behind the main screen graphics. They are draggable though, into view but this I wonder could have something to do with layers, which layer goes on top of what.

Any pointers to how this works, how to change which layer a piece of graphics is on? I guess it's in the ini file but I could very well be wrong.
