Ui_text_edit $CONTROL_PAR_HELP problem [solved]

Hello,
When using ui_text_edit on top of a label the help message doesn't display. If the label is the same height as the ui_text_edit then hovering over the bottom pixel of the control shows the help. Tried some obvious things like changing the z layer in different ways but it makes no difference.

Not sure if anyone reads the help messages, I've never bothered with them before, but hate writing and formatting manuals and thought this might be an alternative. Thoughts on that welcome also.

Thanks for any help.
 
Maybe then put help text onto the label instead?

There were some z-layer fixes in K6 as opposed to K5, are you developing for K5?
 
It's Kontakt 5, forgot to say.
Already have a background label of larger size but added a transparent label same size as text edit and added help to that and changed main background label z layer to -1 and works fine, so thanks a lot for the workaround.
