# Menu Overlay Issues

 * Hello Poe-Lovers out there,
 * I am using a dropdown menu in the header section that is placed within a Cover
   block. In the Main Section below, there is yet another Cover block.
 * Now when I use the menu-dropdown situated in the header, it gets hidden by that
   color overlay of the Main Section Cover Block. When I take a closer look (webdeveloper
   tools of chrome) The Z-Index of the class “.wp-block-cover__inner-container” 
   is the culprit. It is set to 1. And since it is rendered earlier it covers up
   the dropdown (at least thats what I am thinking). When I try out a z-index of
   4, it is no longer covered.
 * This is unfortunate. Why isn`t it so that the header stays on top no matter what?

 * Hi [@entlein](https://wordpress.org/support/users/entlein/),
 * The z-index value on .wp-block-cover__inner-container is set by the styles in
   WordPress Core, so Poe doesn’t have any control over it. You could try creating
   an issue for it on the [Gutenberg GitHub repository](http://github.com/wordpress/gutenberg/).
