I tried getChildIndex and it says that this is for display objects - not static
objects... any way to change order with static objects?
If it is visible, it is on the displaylist.
Will getChildIndex and setChildIndex not work either for static objects?

ok - so I am trying this:
var curChild=getChildByName(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

This worked with three circles on the stage in the timeline. All have
the same eventlistener to them. Does error if the object is already
at the top.
Have fun!

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.

The main timeline instance of course. It even has the class name

This is also the part of the program where we discourage explicit references
to root, as it will break if the swf is ever loaded by another swf, etc.

Except that it wont. Root is always the main timeline of the swf file
the code comes from. It is not always the
