Sets the level at which the frame is layered relative to others in its strata.
Frame:SetFrameLevel(frameLevel)
Arguments[]
- frameLevel
- number
[0-10000]- Layering level of the frame relative to others in its frameStrata.
Details[]
- Frames with higher frame level are layered "in front of" frames with a lower frame level.
Raise()elevates the frame to a level that puts it ahead of others, whileLower()does the opposite.- By default, every frame is drawn just in front of its parent (if it has one); so usually
child:GetFrameLevel() == parent:GetFrameLevel() + 1 - SetFrameLevel() is equivalent to the XML attribute in <Frame frameLevel="">
Patch changes[]
Patch 7.0.3 (2016-07-19): May be manually set to any value from 0 to 10000.[1]

(17:59.34) [They] used to "compress" which caused all sorts of weird behaviour, like just the ordering of creating child frames could adjust your frame levels differently. (18:00.07) [They] now always stay what you set them to, and always sort correctly using that frame level”
