Actor of same class to front?

I have several different actors of the same class. What I want is when I click one of the actors, it will bring it to the front, or above all the other actors. I couldn't find a way since setPaintOrder is only for classes. Any suggestions?

The front object is always the last one that is added to the world. If you re-add it, it will be in the front: 
public void act() {
    if (Greenfoot.mouseClicked(this)) {
        World world = getWorld();
        int x = getX();
        int y = getY();
        world.removeObject(this);
        world.addObject(this, x, y);
    }
}

I don't want to re-add it. It will reset some of the changed variables to it. I just want to bring it to the front.

I have thought about that idea though.

What variables do you mean? If you delete the object from the world and re-add it all the variables of this will have the same values. Why should they be reseted?

Nevermind, thank you! It works fine, just the way I want it to.

I thought it would reset it, since they were private variables.

The variables are only reseted if you create a new instance of the object. The modifiers don't matter there.
