raise - Change a window's position in the stacking order
raise window ?
aboveThis?
If the
aboveThis argument is omitted then the command raises
window so that it is above all of its siblings in the stacking
order (it will not be obscured by any siblings and will obscure
any siblings that overlap it).
If
aboveThis is specified then it must be the path name of
a window that is either a sibling of
window or the descendant
of a sibling of
window.
In this case the
raise command will insert
window into the stacking order just above
aboveThis
(or the ancestor of
aboveThis that is a sibling of
window);
this could end up either raising or lowering
window.
Make a button appear to be in a sibling frame that was created after
it. This is is often necessary when building GUIs in the style where
you create your activity widgets first before laying them out on the
display:
button .b -text "Hi there!"
pack [frame .f -background blue]
pack [label .f.l1 -text "This is above"]
pack .b -in .f
pack [label .f.l2 -text "This is below"]
raise .b
