Re: How to set the Z order of a JInternalFrame?

I have a JInternalFrame that is contained within a JPanel that is being
updated often. The updates cause a lot of flicker since I have to repaint
the internal frame each time I paint the containing panel in order to keep
it visible even though its contents are not changing.

Is there a way that I can have the Z order of the internal frame set to
"always on top"? Or some other solution to the flicker problem?

repaint of children should be made by JPanel, don't change it.
first component is always on top.
So after each adding you should readd your JInternalFrame with index 0.
