Function Description:
This command is used to change the draw order of images and other objects.
Several options are available that control the order in which overlapping
objects are displayed. In addition to the DRAWORDER command, the TEXTTOFRONT
command brings all text, dimensions or leaders in a drawing in front of other
objects and the HATCHTOBACK command sends all hatch objects behind other
objects.
By default, when you create new objects from several existing ones (for example,
FILLET or PEDIT), the resulting objects assume the draw order of the object that
you selected first.
Use the DRAWORDERCTL system variable to control the default display behavior of
overlapping objects.
