Im following a tutorial about using transfrom effect. I create a polygon shape adjust scale, roate and copies and instead of creating copies in front where I can see them they are all behind. Im using a gradient so its not transparent. When I do go transparent I can see copies. How do I apply this effect so copies are in front? Thanks for anyone who can help.

Certainly not ideal, but in the meantime one kludge may be to make a copy of the live object, expand its appearance, then in the Layers palette highlight all items within the group that has been generated and choose the Reverse Order command in the Layers palette menu.

Thank you so much. I was looking for something that would reverse order and couldn't find it! That's a helpful tip.

Can you please show your result and the tutorial?

I guess you want to use the tutorial to build something different?

Basically to overcome this, you have to build the artwork the other way round, since you cannot instruct the transform effect to change stacking order. Would be a good feature request.
