Hi Jiri,
This is a common question here.
Negative levels are used by the Flash IDE. Whenever you create an instance
of an
object on the stage on the IDE, it automatically gets a negative depth.
That's why removeMocieClip() does not work on negative depths.
You may remove a dynamically created clip that resides on a negative depth
if you first swap its depth with a positive depth. (prefereable a big one to
make
sure there is no clip there
myClip.swapDepths(199999);
myClip.removeMovieClip();
BUT
I suggest you never use negative depths. It gives you nothing but trouble.
You may find yourself spending hours to debug some code because you
forgot that some movieclips have negative depth.
You've got so many positive number to use as depths that it's totally
unneccessary to use negative values.
Regards,
Dimitrios Bendilas

Subject: [Flashcoders] Question on removeMovieClip
He list,
I came across something that i find very weird and cant remember coming
across it before.
The thing is when I attach a movie to stage on a negative level, I can't
remove it anymore with removeMovieClip().
An example.
_root.attachMovie("mc" , "mc" , -100);
_root.onMouseDown = function(){
_root.mc.removeMovieClip()
}
Can somebody explain why that is?
Jiri
