On a webpage I have a container at the top with a graphic background. I have text on top of the graphic and I would like to add a logo to the top left within the container in the area where the background is located.

I could make a background graphic that contained the logo as part of it but is there a way to add a graphic on top of an existing background graphic.

Thanks,  
Drew

Here I used a container with a background image. I placed an image using a transparent png file and a text component. Is that what you are trying to do?

That’s exactly what I’m trying to do. But it keeps hopping above or below the area.

This is exactly what I’m trying to do. But when I drop an image it either hops above or below the current image.

I’m really interested in how you did that.

Did you play with z-index?

not sure what your final design is to be

Elements has multiple options, extreme options

I started to try and show different ways of doing this, too many, if I have read your ask right, these may or not meet your need, there are many other ways

These options do not use margins or padding to position, didn’t get into that

Steve is correct, there are a number of ways to do this. Below is what I did showing the settings for each of the 3 components.
