  • there are 2 options >

    select elements, use Edit | Bring To Front menu command. there is no "Bring To Back" command so you have to choose right elements

    other, more sophisticated way is to use Display Priority values. the lowest one is -500, the highest one is +500. so you can have 1000 individual "levels" to place elements on. the only condition required for this concept to work is that file is 2D.

    in 3D file (which is usually any opened DWG file, unless you specify it in DWG | Option dialog - see attached screenshot) this concept does not work and the display of elements honor the real ViewZ value. the Display Priority picker in Attributes toolbox shall be grayed in such case
