tk4.2 User Commands - raise






NAME

     raise - Change a window's position in the stacking order


SYNOPSIS

     raise window ?aboveThis?





DESCRIPTION

     If the aboveThis argument is omitted then the command raises
     window so that it is above all of its siblings in the stack-
     ing 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 ances-
     tor of aboveThis that is a sibling of  window);  this  could
     end up either raising or lowering window.
