I concur. You just can't have two mcs on the same depth in Flash.
When you use a repeat loop similar to my code, don't forget to switch the
shape flag on (see code). This way you'll avoid hitting on empty bits in the
rect (that's why I was using circles to test my theory - the bounding rect
This can also be done with the Flix Engine. We have been using this

You do it with code. I would recommend you switch to the help docs
and/or move this thread to Flashnewbies. It's pretty basic stuff, no

You have to print the text using an embedded font, or Flash will screw up the
scroll properties on the print and you'll end up repeating a few lines of text
from page to page.

You could open it up with a hex editor and poke at it if you really knew what
you were doing. Otherwise, your best bet is to edit the FLA and republish. If
you can't do that, you'll have to decompile, edit *that* FLA, and republish.

If you mean something like giving it a hidden tag to identify where
one in the wild came from, maybe Swfmill could help. It can convert an
existing SWF to XML, you edit that, maybe a property name or text in a
hidden textfield, then convert it back to SWF.

Hi,
well it's not going to work with a flash only solution, you probably need to
wrap your flash (assuming it has to be flash) with an exe, such as Zinc or

Depths cant be identical in the same timeline so what you'll have to do is
check the depth of the _parent clip in case of equal depth

If performance isn't an issue, you can use getDepth to figure out the top
most mc / textfield and then just act on it (place into a zorder array and
use depth for index). However, that is a more process intensive way of
emulating onRollOver. For textfield's you are correct. You can't catch
For every mousemove or enterframe (however, you decide to check hittest) you
have to loop through and hittest every movieclip you want to check.
So say for example we are talking about just 10 movieclips checking using

Ok. This is what I was missing. Thanks to Karina and Erik for
pointing out that you need to compare the entire parent chain of two
objects to figure out which one is being rendered above the other.
The only thing to add is that in addition to checking depths, the
