all IDisplayObjectContainer interface methods and properties.& setChildAt() work great for setting depth along with the property numChildren

            I've been trying to do just this -- the z-order as you say has 
nothing to do with the order of drawing, i.e. what ends up on top.  
What function do I need to override or create in order to control the 
drawing order?  (I've tried updateDisplayList but haven't been able 
to make that work.)

Thanks,

Jeremy
