Annotatioin Presentation Layer [message #330494]

I want to set the presentation layer of an annotation which is part of my
plugin. (via the org.eclipse.ui.editor.markerAnnotationSpecification
extension point) It had been set at 0 but it would sometimes be
overwritten by the first line of context shading in the java editor ruler.

I found that setting it to 1 solves this current problem, but I'm
wondering, are there any guidelines/conventions as to what value to make
the presentation layer of you're plugin's annotations? I have not been
successful at finding any discussion on the topic.

This is not exactly specified. Basically the higher the number the
bigger the chance that it isn't hidden by another annotation with a
higher value. I'd look at existing annotation specs and see where yours
fits in. 0 shouldn't be used as you already found out.
