How to get Map Frame on the Top of other drawn objects

I am using the mapping toolbox to draw a number of patchm objects. Unfortunately , there are a number of places where the edges of the patch cross the map frame that is drawn around the map boundary. Is there a way to make the map frame on top? I have tried the following with no luck:

-----BEGIN CODE BLOCK-----

latlim = [32 33];
lonlim = [-118 -117];

map = usamap(latlim, lonlim);
setm(map, 'MapProjection', 'Mercator');
setm(map, 'Grid', 'off'); 
setm(map, 'FLineWidth', 5);
plotm([1 1]*mean(latlim),    lonlim + [0.001 0],    '-r', 'LineWidth', 5);

uistack(handlem('Frame'), 'top');

-----END CODE BLOCK-----

In the example here I have inflated the width of the lines to highlight the effect. Thanks for any help.

It was a good idea to try uistack:

uistack(handlem('Frame'), 'top');

but because the frame is placed in the z == -1 plane by default, you have to change it its ZData to pull it upward. This should work:

zdatam(handlem('Frame'),1)

Great! Thanks that worked.... (Now how to mark this as answered...)

Oops, I typed my answer into the comment field -- that's why you couldn't just mark it answered.
