Hi Edwin, If you use absolute layout for your container then the layering of the child objects will be based on the order you add them to the the container (front-to-back). The child can also overlap with each other based on the x,y value you provide. You can find out which Child object is on the top by traversing the display list. There are numbers of APIs exposed in DisplayObjectContainer class to work with the display list. To have control over the default ordering you might find the following APIs useful:
- swapChildren(): swaps the front-to-back order of two display objects. - swapChildrenAt(): swaps the front-to-back order of two display objects, specified by their index values Hope that helps Debabrata On Mar 3, 9:31 pm, [email protected] wrote: > Dear India, > How do you control layers/levels of components in Flex when Layout is set to > absolute??? > How do we control which layer is on top? > > This seems very simple. > > Thanks in Advance. > > Edwin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Flex India Community" group.
