RE: [flexcoders] Getting al DisplayObjects under a given global Point

[Gordon Smith]

Actually, what it is excluding is DisplayObjects that haven't drawn anything at the point in question. For example, if you click over the text of a Button,  the UITextField and the ButtonSkin will be in the Array, but the Button instance won't be because it doesn't display anything itself. Similarly, a transparent HBox won't show up. You'd have to walk up the parent chain to find non-drawing DisplayObjects like these.   - Gordon   From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Daniel Freiman Sent: Monday, August 28, 2006 1:39 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Getting al DisplayObjects under a given global Point   I've tried using this function and it seems to exclude DisplayObjectContainers (in other words it only returns DisplayObjects, not classes that are a subclass of DisplayObject).  Is there any convenient way to get a list of other types of objects, such as UIComponents?

Is there an elegant way of doing it in Flex2?? Get the stack ( an array ) of all the DisplayObjects at a given point in the global coordinate system.
