ok - but what would "container" be for stuff just placed on the stage in the IDE?? ________________________________________ From: flashcoders-boun...@chattyfig.figleaf.com [flashcoders-boun...@chattyfig.figleaf.com] On Behalf Of Juan Pablo Califano [califa010.flashcod...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, April 28, 2010 2:17 PM To: Flash Coders List Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] arranging The display list is managed as a stack. New items go on top when you add them by default. So the first item you added will have index 0. If you addChild() again, the new child will be at index 1. If you want to get the topmost child, you can do: container.getChildAt(container.numChildren - 1); Cheers Juan Pablo Califano 2010/4/28 Lehr, Theodore <ted_l...@federal.dell.com> > ok - so I am trying this: > > var curChild=getChildByName(e.currentTarget.name<http://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...
