Answer box cover up

I'm making a project with a flat design. I want it to look very clean, but one problem is the answer box for the:
askandwait
command.

I dont want the player to see the whole overlay, only the actual text box. I created a sprite to cover it, but the answer box always overlaps it. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Any visual effects like ghost or color will disable sprites from going over the ask box. Any of those effects in any sprite.

If I have a ghost change on the start button, will it affect the cover up?

Yes, if you don't use visual effects then you can cover the ask box. It's weird.

I removed all visual effects from my sprites, but the over up still doesn't work. Do I need to make a new project for it to work?

Hmm, weird. I didn't do massive research on this, I just saw it in a project with an ask timer. I'll see what else I can find

Try making the sprite go to the front after you show the text box, might work.

Well, to do that, you need to do this:

whenIreceivewhen the ask is being asked, put in a brodcast BEFORE the ask block.showwaituntildoneasking=yeshide
