Your original post talked about layers, with UMap going underneath stuff. Depending on how you went about doing that, you could have put UMap under the Application or hit some bug where we got confused as to where the Application is in the z-order. Dumping the systemManager.rawChildren might tell us what is going on.

Please bear with me. Are you saying that the UMap component is doing something it oughtn't? Or is your reply based on my (perhaps) poorly phrased question? In other words, are you saying that the error message I've presented here means that UMap is doing something it shouldn't, or just that if it *were* doing that you'd expect to see that message? The app we're working on is reasonably complex, but I'm not doing anything overly clever in it - at least, I've never done anything to cause an error like this previously.

We don't officially support slipping anything behind the Application. You could try adjusting the mx_internal applicationIndex to be the right number.

If I put a UMap map under these layers and click on pretty much anything that sits over the map I get this error: ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller. at flash.display::DisplayObjectContainer/getChildIndex() at mx.managers::SystemManager/getChildIndex()[C:\dev\flex_201_gmc\sdk \frameworks\mx\managers\SystemManager.as:1270] at mx.managers::SystemManager/mouseDownHandler()[C:\dev\flex_201_gmc \sdk\frameworks\mx\managers\SystemManager.as:2478] Any clues? Am I doing something wrong? Does UMap just not like having other objects sitting over the top of it? I hope that's not the case as it would mean we can't use it. Guy
