I have projects with a lot of panels. When comes time to do some changes, I have to select the panel in the Views Tree then right click on the middle of the designer and select bring to front. Would be easier to right click on the panel in the Views Tree then have the option to bring it to front.

You can move the panel within the views tree thus changing it's Z-Order...
But I guess this is not what you want... Remember the designer is WYSIWYG, which means thar if you bring a view to front, you are in fact changing it's Z-Order.

Dragging the view to bottom of the tree or below another view will make the view appear on top or front.

Thank you for your suggestions but it would be simpler to have the option in the drop down menu. I believe it should have been there from the beginning.

Click to expand...

I agree that this can be more beginner friendly. It seems like a hidden feature.

A mouse right click on a selected view will give you...
