Yeah I contemplated that option too. But my problem is that the second clip is smaller than the container, so I will have to use the hitTest method to get around it. But assuming both clips were the same size that would have worked :)
Pat ------------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] Modifying flash's chain of events just a guess, but wouldn´t it be possible to call the parent´s event handler method from the child that recieved the event like this._parent.__f_click(); work for you? This works for click events, don´t know about others though,... -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Patrick Jean Sent: Tuesday, April 11, 2006 10:02 PM To: 'Flashcoders mailing list' Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] Modifying flash's chain of events Oh, I thought about it. Ok, I guess I'll have to use that method. I wish there was a "pass" method.

You can try to forward the event to the member manually using hitTest.
