To be honest, I wish there was a true z-order mechanism built in... something like the Sequence aliases, triggers, and timers have would be nice at least.
There *is* a z-order sequence. They are drawn in alphabetic order by name, so the lower the name is, the further to the back it is.
Yes, that's the one I had just described. By "real z-order mechanism" I meant one that's not quite as static as using names which can't be changed later. |

Hopefully you can see it in this pic, but i changed the alphabetical order and still the windows tile in some unknown order . . .
http://i849.photobucket.com/albums/ab54/Deacla/screencap.jpg
The alpha order is:
*AAA_Auction_Window
*AAB_Tellz_Window
*AAD_Clan_window
*AAZ_Health_Bar_And_Other_Info
*ABA_Quest_Capture
But the windows are tiling in this order (if you can't deduce it yourself), from on_bottom to on_top:
*AAA_Auction_Window
*ABA_Quest_Capture
*AAZ_Health_Bar_And_Other_Info
*AAB_Tellz_Window
*AAD_Clan_window
The filenames are exactly the same as the plugin names + .xml
It's the windows that have the name z-order, not the plugins. After all, a plugin can have multiple windows. Name your windows with the prefixes you gave instead. |

| If you want a unique ID for the window, but also control the z-order, do something like (for the Window IDs):
win1 = "001" .. GetPluginID ()
win2 = "002" .. GetPluginID ()

True, but there's no easy way to change the z-order after the fact, say if you want to implement a change-of-focus effect (for example, clicking a window brings it to the top of its stack).
EDIT: "runtime" -> "after the fact" |
