16 If the aboveThis argument is omitted then the command raises window so
17 that it is above all of its siblings in the stacking order (it will not
18 be obscured by any siblings and will obscure any siblings that overlap
19 it). If aboveThis is specified then it must be the path name of a win‐
20 dow that is either a sibling of window or the descendant of a sibling
21 of window. In this case the raise command will insert window into the
22 stacking order just above aboveThis (or the ancestor of aboveThis that
23 is a sibling of window); this could end up either raising or lowering
24 window.

27 Make a button appear to be in a sibling frame that was created after
28 it. This is is often necessary when building GUIs in the style where
29 you create your activity widgets first before laying them out on the
30 display:
31 button .b -text "Hi there!"
32 pack [frame .f -background blue]
33 pack [label .f.l1 -text "This is above"]
34 pack .b -in .f
35 pack [label .f.l2 -text "This is below"]
