Note that GRASS frame contents are not retained when one frame covers another. You cannot shuffle frames from top to bottom and then back again. They simply define rectangular areas on the screen where subsequent drawing will occur.
If the user has created multiple display frames that overlap one another, whatever the user displays in the active frame will overwrite those portions of the underlying frame where these frames overlap.
Important note: This version of d.frame works only with GRASS 7.0. Further versions of GRASS come with their own built-in d.frame module.
