Why in the first place you want to use negative depth?

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.
