bring to front

What is the best practice to bring a frame to the front on top of everything else? I have a button I made which after clicking its supposed to bring a modal to the front on top of everything else. I am using
:SetDrawLayer(0). It works correctly the first time but when I click on something behind it (specifically ZO_Skills window) and then click the open button again, it brings my window behind everything.



Code:
-- RENAME modal
ss.renameModal = Chain ( wm:CreateTopLevelWindow("ss.renameModal") )
	:SetDimensions(450,200)
	:SetAnchor(CENTER, GuiRoot, CENTER, 0, 0)
	:SetHidden(true)
.__END


-- RENAME ICON
p[pfID].rename = Chain( wm:CreateControl("p"..pfID..".rename", p[pfID].btn, CT_BUTTON) )
	:SetDimensions(30,30)
	:SetNormalTexture("/esoui/art/buttons/edit_up.dds")
	:SetAnchor(TOPRIGHT, p[pfID].btn, TOPLEFT, 0,0)
	:SetDrawLayer(3)
	:SetHandler("OnClicked",
		function(self) 
			openRenameModal(pfID)
		end)
.__END
Code:
function openRenameModal(pID)
	ss.renameModal.currentPID = pID
	ss.renameModal:SetHidden(false)	
	ss.renameModal.editBox:TakeFocus()

       --this doesnt always bring to front
	ss.renameModal.bg:SetDrawLayer( 0 )

	debug = ss.renameModal:GetDrawLayer()
	d(debug)
end
