Here's a nifty little widget for those to young to drive knee deep into the
pools of "window managers".
zsorter works like a behavior, you can make any layer zsortable with:
SortEvent.enableZSort(myLayer);
You can attach and unattach, to turn it off on a layer that is enabled use:
SortEvent.disableZSort(myLayer);
etc, etc....
It's a great companion widget for dragevent.
Ok Richard..... "GET IT!!!!!!!!!"
