Barry,

This is actually more complicated than a simple under message (which does not exist). Have you looked into collision detection? Have you checked out the new and improved Animation Engine. imageCollide comes to mind. You might need to do something with points etc. instead of a color in an image. Do you have a sample stack that shows what you need to do?

Thank you Eric, but nobody is using the mouse in this part of the game.
I
think I need a script in the card that passes a message to each of
several objects to determine which is above the given colour.
Oh! I
knew I should'nt have asked this silly question but I can't find any
property/attribute like "under", [underneath], [below], [beneath] in the docs!
As usual I have a beautiful UI that I'm not capable of scripting. :-(
Gratefully

Original post:
Hi all
This question will probably (I hope) be easier for some of you to answer than for me formulate! I am trying to detect when the colour changes below the loc of an image (png) object lying above another of the same type. The catch is that the top img would "see" the underlying one through a hole in another png which is on an intermediate level between the two of them!

To put it another way: there are three png images directly superimposed, the one on the middle layer has a 'hole' in it and I need the top layer to detect when it is over the hole (i.e., detect the
change in colour beneath it's loc).
Here's hoping!
