Parent's Parent is UIParent

[Bella]

I'm having a little difficulty accessing some frames. I know that the frame's I want to change parent's parent is UIParent. However, when I change something via UIParent, the frames don't inherit what I'm changing. Is this because frames don't inherit twice? If so, how would I get the frames that are children of the UIParent, in order to modify them and have it inherit to the children. Or is this because the frames I am trying to change already have settings that are overriding what I'm trying to change? In which case, will I need to add code for every frame I want to change?

If that didn't make any sense, sorry. It seems a little cryptic, haha.

Thanks
