Description

DSVWDP allows you to modify the view display priority.  For example, if two figures overlap in a window, you can set one to have display priority over the other, which in effect masks the figure with the lesser priority. 

You can set the priority of the view display by setting the view index to the next higher or lower priority. If the view index and the reference view index are the same, this function has no effect on setting display priorities. 

The default view display priorities are view 0 through view n, where view 0 has the highest priority and view n has the lowest priority.
