ActionScript 2.0 :: Arangement Of Mc In Z Depth?
Jan 8, 2004
I have a slide show of images for my banner that is loaded through the use of a component in my library. The component merely swaps images with a fade out/in as a transition. Now, that is working fine, the thing that i am having a problem with is that i can not place an graphic/text on top of the component. I what the banner to be in the background. What do I have to add to the component to insure that it will always load in the back, not infront of the text, graphic, etc..

Is there any way to see if a depth is already being used by a movieclip before assigning it to another movieclip? I have a game where there are hundreds of movieclips moving around on screen at the same time and changing depths every time they move. But at rare times, one movieclip will spawn at the exact spot another movieclip is in and use that depth, making the old movieclip invisible (but still active and moving around).

I'm running a loop that's creating a multiple movieclips. Each clip can be dragged to drop point on the screen. What i'm trying to accomplish is when you select an item to drag it should take the highest depth, and should appear over all other draggable items. Right now the first clip is always under all of them while the last is getting the highest.

This should be really easy to do, but i cant find anything from searching. It's all tuturials for buttons and stuff. All i want to do, is put a MC called "face" on top of everything. What exactly would be the AS3 for this, and where would i put it?

Is there any code like replacemc? Instead of removeChild() and then placing the new one at the addChildAt(same depth).

i have a slide out panel, which is a clip, with animated buttons,(they are cheat buttons so they have time lines or clips for each of the button states) these load pages or clips to the main stage, the problem is i want these swfs to load under the slide out panel, here is a little of my code,i know its a little crude but the way i have made the panel and buttons i found it easier this way.clip is laid out like "stage.page_loader.navi_pane.navi_pane_animations.buttons",the navi_pane loads clips to stage,the stage has about 15 layers with various animations,the navi pane has rollover states so clips have to be loaded to the stage so as not to take on button properties
any help would be most greatfull.
navi_pane.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, npRollover);
navi_pane.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, npRollout);
navi_pane.b1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,pageb1);

I've got an isometric view of a flat surface. On this surface there are various characters running around and I obviously need to control the depths of each object.
My flat surface needs to be used in two views: top-bottom + isometric.
The original mc is generated in the flat top-bottom mode. For the isometric view, that same mc gets distorted: this way the whole XY coordinates system gets distorted too.
Have a look at this (updated).
So i'd need to create this extra coordinate (is it the classic Z-depth?), and manage to gather information about it...
Does anyone know what the formula would be to calculate the depths of each character (red lines)?

Whenever I create a MovieClip in the IDE and draw on it with the IDE then use ActionScript to add more to it (add a Sprite, draw graphics etc..) the thing I added is always behind the graphics of the MovieClip that was drawn in the IDE. How do I bring the Sprite/Graphics that I draw/add to the MovieClip in front of the graphics that were drawn with the IDE?I have tried doing this:
Code:
var myMC:mcDemo = new mcDemo(); //mcDemo being a MovieClip created in the IDE.
var sp:Sprite = new Sprite();[code]...
The final product of this is the myMC movieclip on the screen with my sprite behind whatever I drew in the IDE for myMC. How do I make it so the sprite is in front of everything? I have tried setting it to numChildren-1 which should set it in front of all objects.

I am creating multiple sprites on the stage using structured classes as shown below, I would like every time I click on one of these sprites to make it go on top of all previously created sprites. I would also like to know if this can be implemented from within the last class "class c" onMouseDown function.

I've got a bunch of movieclips lying on top of each other like a stack. When you click one, it slides out, and comes forward. When clciked again it goes back and slides back into the stack.inside the movieclips iv'e placed:
Code:
this.swapDepths(1);
along the timeline at a spcific frame.I need to make it get the same depth value as it had before I clicked it when it goes back. Basicly:
Code:
this.swapDepths(same-as-before-the-swap-to-depth-1);
I guess I need som kind og listener to logg the changes made...

I'm creating this shooter game. I attached a crosshair mc at the beginning with the depth set to getNextHighestDepth.However I keep adding the monsters mc dynamically when the game progresses, also with getNextHighestDepth. So the monster mc will keep overriding the depth of my crosshair's depth. how to get my crosshair mc's depth always to be on top of everything including the monster mc.I tried getNextHighestDepth()+1000 for my crosshair mc. But it was dumb because the monsters keep getting getNextHighestDepth as well. I assume that monster's depth would be 1001, 1002 and so on...

I have been trying to change the depth of an object. I have only just started learning AS3, so I haven't looked into this yet.So far I have been using a trial-&-error method to try to get this piece of code to work which I found on a site, but I have not succeeded:
Code:
setChildIndex(example,numChildren-1);
I am putting this code in it's class, and I tried replacing the word example with 'this'. Can someone please help me? When I test the swf it comes up with this in output:
Code:
ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.

I have tried repeatedly to take the examples in setChildIndex and instead of using sprites I want to control the order of 2 buttons on the stage so that when I roll over one of the buttons it comes to the top.

I have a Flash application that includes an MC (bitmap object) that is dynamically assigned to a Class. In that Class, other graphics are created, but the class MC is overlapping those graphics. Event though I tried dynamic depth swapping, it generally works, yet not for the inherent MC assigned to the class. The MC still overlaps the other graphic, even if I have swapped that graphic to the top depth

Im trying to change the depth or index of a movieclip when its click. And bring it to the top of everything. The problem is that the movie clip is not added by addChild, but nested in a frame.
so if i try and use any of these:
anyMC.parent.setChildIndex(anyMC, anyMC.parent.numChildren-1);
or public function bringMCToFront($mc:MovieClip){ $mc.parent.setChildIndex($mc, $mc.parent.numChildren-1);}
by it gives me this error: Error #1065: Variable setChildIndex is not defined.

With flash builder and away3d I have made a 3D building where you can walk through.
When you start, you are outside the building and you can enter the building through a door. This building has an outside wall made of bricks and an inside wall. There is a little space between the inside wall and the outside wall (just as a cavity wall).
But when I walk outside the building, I can see sometimes parts of the inside wall through the outside wall (depth sorting problem). The same as I walk into the building, I see parts of the outside wall through the inside wall. Some of these depth sorting problems you can solve with pushfront and pushback, but not all. For example when you are outside the building, you can use pushfront for the outside wall.
You don't see the inside wall through the outside wall anymore. But when you walk into the building you see the outside wall through the inside wall (of course because you used pushfront for the outside wall). Actually it depends on your position in the 3D space for which wall you have to use pushback or pushfront. Is there a way to solve this kind of depth sorting problems?
