when we draw some figures which set to be opaque allways the last one we
draw is kept on-top of the others.
how can we set the figure behavoir so that the last figure been selected
will be on top of the others?

thanks,
idan.

GEF is not a windowing system. Most diagram editors don't change the
z-order on selection. Usually, you have to invoke a "send to back" or
"bring to front" action.

You could do this yourself in EditPart.setSelection(int) and test for
PRIMARY selection.
You would have to reorder the figures in their parent figure. However,
during refreshChildren, you'd have to play with addChildVisual(EditPart, int
index) so that the users z-order is maintained, instead of restoring hte
z-order from the model.
