Hi all

So i’m having a bit of a problem with using Overlays and prototyping which I may be doing wrong (new to Penpot here)

My objective is to create a toggle where i replace the frame below

Replacing ColPalOff Frame with ColPalOn Frame

when the toggle “Send Copy of delivery to customer” is clicked.

However having problem trying to get the positioning correct as it keeps going on the top center of the “Collect Pallets” board not on top of the ColPalOff Frame

any ideas?

It’s hard to work this out without seeing your layers/board names, but does it help if you change the **Relative to** field to the **ColPalOff** frame you mention?

The **Relative to** option sets where the **Position** is aligned to.

thanks for that.  
I did end up resolving by using manual positioning
