Yup, not enough clues. But here are some things to try.

1) You can change the drawing order by changing the order the graphic
objects are inserted into the grModel. Or use the grContainer methods to
move objects around in the model.

2) Check out the DEPTH_OFFSET property that is available in most graphic
objects.

3) You can use the ZCOORD_CONV property to shift things around in Z as
well.
