Hi All,

I have noticed that there is no bringToFront() or sendToBack() methods
for JComponents in order to change the Z-order of the GUI.  I have some
JPanels which are children on a parent JPanel and when I click and drag
one of them I want it to appear on top of all the others...how can I
bring a panel to the front or send the others back in the Z-order...I
guess the JVM has it's own interpretation of Z-order which may be
different to the host operating system...I would very much appreciate
any help out there...Thanks and have a good day!

Kind regards,

Zav
