dotnet general : Z-Buffer

Hey all.
I was wondering if there was a current implementation of Z-Buffering in
a form's controls (besides the basic BringToFront and SendToBack
methods). I think I could build one myself, but I didn't want to
reinvent the wheel if necessery.

Thanks

The 'z-index' is a client-side CSS positioning attribute and would not
ordinarily be present in any server controls.

Z-Indices have been present for many years and are not constricted to
CSS (DX, OpenGL both use them). I'm building an interface similar to MS
Publisher, and I would like the user to be able to bring controls
forward or backward on command. This would be accomplished easiest
using Z-Indices (or so it seems to me; anybody got a better idea?)

Thanks
