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
