oops, sorry. attached is a screencap showing side-by-side of plots produced with qt, gnuplot, and fltk (left to right). in the qt plots the red + is always on top. In gnuplot and fltk the order follows the plot order (subsequent plots always on top of earlier plots)

Could you post PNGs of the plots so that we can see what is happening? If I understand it right, then I believe this may be a Windows only bug. I ran the sample code under Linux and it worked fine.
For ease, I'm attaching a script, bad_overlap.m, which contains the code to produce the two figures.

referring to a recent help list discussion [1], it seems that the new Qt graphics don't respect plot order when plots overlap. if run with the three different graphics toolkits, Qt looks different from gnuplot or fltk. For the latter, whichever plot is 'first' is always on top where they overlap. For Qt, the + plot is always on top whether it is first or second in the list.
This seems to be a regression from previous versions before Qt was a generally available option, and gnuplot and fltk match the Matlab behavior if visual compatibility is necessary.
