huhgawz,
I think most UIComponents subclass DisplayObjectContainer, which has a
method
getChildIndex <#getChildIndex%28%29>(child:DisplayObject
<../../flash/display/DisplayObject.html>):int <../../int.html>
so call this to find the child index (basically z-order) of the
lowest-ordered circle you want to have visible,
then iterate all the Children underneath that index using the property
numChildren and method getChildAt <#getChildAt%28%29>(index:int
<../../int.html>):DisplayObject <../../flash/display/DisplayObject.html>
and set them visible=false

Hope that helps..

Let's say you have a /Canvas/ in which you create multiple instances
of a /Circle/ randomly positioned. Then you want to know which
/Circles/ are underneath the top most /Circle/ (talking in /z-order/
terms) in order to hide them all.
Could you share an example of this?
I would really appreciate any guidance....
