Hey,
Thanks everyone for your suggestions.
Tom, in order to remove the textfield, as you say, you will have
to swapDepths() first, which unfortunately doesn't work on TextFields.
That's why I started this thread in the first place.
I just found this suggestion in a forum:
TextField.prototype.swapDepths = MovieClip.prototype.swapDepths;
A little hack that lets you swap textfields. Didn't try it yet but I guess
it works.
Do you all think it's something I wouldn't mind putting in? Or is it too
dirty?
I think it's ok.
Dimitrios

someone posted a function the other day on here that means you can remove
clips on a negative depth. the basis of it was a swapdepths before the
remove as I recall, have a look. might even have been yesterday...

WOW!
I never knew Flash would not remove _mcs with negative depth. I just
tried it and it and it won't work. I guess you learn something new
every day.
import flash.geom.Rectangle
import flash.display.BitmapData
_mc = _root.createEmptyMovieClip("rect_mc",30000);
_bdm = new BitmapData(300,200,false,0xFF0000);
_mc.attachBitmap(_bdm,0);
_mc.onPress = function(){
trace("removing")
this.removeMovieClip();
}
