I have written a class that simply creates movieclips (grids) on screen. It draws everything from actionscript so no library items are required.
However, I am passing this class on to developers that will use it as they see fit. The problem is with the depth management. It seems I am stuck with forcing the developers not to use any components, otherwise the depth management is all stuffed up. If I use getNextHighestDepth(), I can create and destroy movieclips freely which is fine. Until someone uses a v2 component (like a button), then it breaks. They will create, but wont destroy because they get an invalid depth at creation. If I decide to use the DepthManager class, I have to have at least one v2 component in the library for it to work. The reason i created the class in the first place was to keep things small and libraryless if i wanted to. its seems I'm damned if i do and i'm damned if i dont. Is there any way to detect for components and use the DepthManager class instead of getNextHighestDepth()? cheers, Darren _______________________________________________ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
