Examples
| Description | Move a panel in front of another panel, defined after it. |
|---|---|
| Used on | |
| Code | //First panel local disp1 = vgui.Create("DFrame") disp1:SetSize(400,500) disp1:SetPos(200,400) local button = vgui.Create("DButton",disp1) button:SetText("Click me!") button:Center() //Second panel. By default, it will render in front of the the first panel. local disp2 = vgui.Create("DFrame") disp2:SetSize(300,700) disp2:SetPos(250,300) //First panel will now be drawn in front of the second. disp1:MoveToFront() |
| Output | disp1 is drawn above disp2, a panel that would normally obscure disp1. |
Additional Notes
- Don't confuse this with Panel.MoveAbove, Panel.MoveBelow, Panel.MoveRightOf and Panel.MoveLeftOf which are purely positional methods. Panel:MoveToFront affects rendering order only.
- This does not only influence the rendering order but also the order in which panels are laid out (for example Docking).
