How to make a GUI go behind another?

Firstly I realize this is not a scripting question, and if the Moderators believe it should be removed, then they of course can remove it.

Is there a way to make a GUI go 'behind' another, like in Microsoft Word you can 'Send to back', is there a way to do this to frames in scripting, or do I have to mess around with parenting? Or is the most recently edited/spawned/cloned one at the front.

ZIndex, Determines the order in which GUI objects are rendered, with 10 being in front and 1 in back.

Example please?

Its a setting in things such as frames, textbuttons, textboxes ect. Put to frames in one screen gui and set the Zindex of one frame as 1 and the second frame as 2 or greater, see the result

If one GUI's ZIndex is higher then another, the higher one would appear in front of the lower one.

The most recently added gui will always be the one on top

So, if you want to have one on the bottom you should parent it into the gui last.

Any way to bypass this?

Not that I know of. There may be a plugin for dragging guis.
