ok - so I am trying this: var curChild=getChildByName(e.currentTarget.name); var curIndex:int=getChildIndex(curChild); trace(curIndex);
and it seems as though it is counting from the back up... so if I have 12 mcs, then the one no top will trace 12... I would think the one on top would be 1.... I would love to just set it to 1 to make it come to the top and then reset it back to it's original number to put it back.... any thoughts.... ________________________________________ From: [email protected] [[email protected]] On Behalf Of Nathan Mynarcik [[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, April 28, 2010 1:51 PM To: Flash Coders List Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] arranging Will getChildIndex and setChildIndex not work either for static objects? -----Original Message----- From: "Lehr, Theodore" <[email protected]> Date: Wed, 28 Apr 2010 13:38:39 To: Flash Coders List<[email protected]> Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] arranging the issue is that these are mcs that are NOT put there in as but in the IDE.... I tried getChildIndex and it says that this is for display objects - not static objects... any way to change order with static objects? ________________________________________ From: [email protected] [[email protected]] On Behalf Of Nathan Mynarcik [[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, April 28, 2010 1:33 PM To: Flash Coders List Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] arranging addChild(mc) normally brings them to the top. ------Original Message------ From: Henrik Andersson Sender: [email protected] To: Flash Coders List ReplyTo: Flash Coders List Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] arranging Sent: Apr 28, 2010 12:13 PM Lehr, Theodore wrote: > If I have mcs that are put on the same layer in the ide - how can I change > their order (i.e. send to back, bring forward) in as3? They will still have different indexes on the display list. Just do the same old stuff as usual. _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list [email protected] http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list [email protected] http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list [email protected] http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list [email protected] http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list [email protected] http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
