To Raise- and Lower-Shapes...
Why can’t you use the common shortcuts...? the up- and down-arrow-keys...
(raise to front, just add the shift-key)

Regarding your front-walk:
Either check this link out from the Bio Motion Lab:
http://www.biomotionlab.ca/Demos/BMLwalker.html

Or, do a Forum search, this subject has been discussed a few times...

Well, not sure why it isn’t working at your side...?
(works perfectly here with version 5.6)
Check out Tutorial 2.4 “Shape ordering”...

You should be able to search youtube for videos with monkeys in it.
