Subject: Re: [Norton AntiSpam] [flexcoders] setting a z-index

 

In the flash player the z-index is referred to as depth.  take a look at
docs for getDepth() swapDepths() etc.

However, if you are running flex 2, take a look at the PopupButton class,
this may provide a lot of what you are trying to do.
