Please see the images below it illustrates my problem very clearly.

When I take a line from a task in one pool to a task in another pool the line goes behind the background colour of the lanes it crosses, even the one that contains a task it is connecting to.

The line in the screenshot is actually connecting to the receive goods task but you see is behind the lane.

This problem occurs only when a line has a background colour assigned. If I remove the background of the one lane then you can see the line connecting to the task.

This problem also seems to depend on what elements are being linked, for example in the image below you can see the differences in this image, arrow 1is a black box to a task line, arrow 2 points to a black box to black box line, these display correctly. However arrow 3,4 and 5 points to the earlier example showing that the task to task line behind lanes backgrounds.

Can somebody tell me why this is and help me see the lines.
