Solid Edge FrameworkSupport Type Library
BringToFront Method
Description
Changes the display order of the referenced object by moving it in front of all other overlapping objects.
Syntax
Visual Basic
Public Sub BringToFront() 
Remarks
This command is useful when objects are hidden by other objects that are filled and have a higher priority display. The BringForward method can also be used.
Example
Private Sub Form_Load()
    Dim objApp As SolidEdgeFramework.Application
    Dim objDoc As SolidEdgeDraft.DraftDocument
    Dim objSheet As SolidEdgeDraft.Sheet
    Dim objBounds As SolidEdgeFrameworkSupport.Boundaries2d
    Dim objBound(2) As SolidEdgeFrameworkSupport.Boundary2d
    Dim dblPoint(1 To 8) As Double
    Dim i As Integer
    Dim j As Integer
    Dim lngOrder As Long
    ' Report errors
    Const PI = 3.14159265358979
