This is all do to TextField boxes that are overlapping my button sprites. Personally, if a textfield is blank, I think the sprite underneath should allow MouseEvents from underneath, because in a sense an invisible area of a TextField should be like an invisible part of a sprite.
Any one else have any input on this?
