What you are suggesting will work fine unless the button is in a group. You cannot relayer objects in a group without setting relayerGroupedControls to true. However once that is set, it is possible to relayer the object right out of it's containing group, so be warned. So assuming that the object's are not in groups, you can do something like this: put the layer of btn "My Button" into tLayer set the layer of btn "My Button" to the number of controls on this card -- do stuff to the button set the layer of btn "MyButton" to tLayer Cheers, Sarah _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
