Do stacks have controllable levels?

Hello everybody:
I have a large stack and a small stack (Let's call the latter "Panel
x").

From a script, "Panel x" needs to slide behind the right side of the
large stack and switch to another panel ("Panel y") which slides back
out. The problem is that I can't consistently control which is on top.
1. I tried drawer "Panel x" but the stack disappeared. The only way I
could get it back was by quitting Rev and reopening. Anyway, I'm
aiming for cross-platform.
2. I tried to keep the large stack on top by temporarily using modal
or systemWindow, but both cause the large stack to close and reopen
which is unsightly. If I use lock screen, the large stack turns white
during the process.
Sometimes "Panel x" slides on top the first time I do it and then
slides behind the second time. Is there a consistent method of
controlling stack "levels"? Thank you.
