Rohit, What about using a TBevel? That's just like the border of a panel without displaying anything inside it, ie: like a panel with a visible border but a transparent centre. Unless you want to put the controls _onto_ the TPanel - but would you need to anyway?
TGraphicControl descendants like TBevel are drawn on their parent directly, so there's no way to have them sit in front of controls descended from TWindowControl.
