 overlays first and then text properties.  @xref{Overlays}.
 
-The argument @var{object} may be a string, a buffer, or a window.  If it
-is a window, then the buffer displayed in that window is used for text
-properties and overlays, but only the overlays active for that window
-are considered.  If @var{object} is a buffer, then all overlays in that
-buffer are considered, as well as text properties.  If @var{object} is a
-string, only text properties are considered, since strings never have
-overlays.
