In short, my need is to have a background Image in my java app, and upon some event, create some other graphics on top of that image.

I was thinking I would use a JPanel to draw the background image in, add it at to my JFrame the start of program, and then add other JPanels on top of that upon certain events. The problem is Swing gives the JPanels added first the highest Z index, so what should be my background is showing up on top of everything.

Is there any way to control the Z index/order of the JPanels, or am I going about this completely wrong?

    You can use the setComponentZOrder() to handle Z-Order in your application.
