having a little problemo
I have two different movie clips on my main stage.
instance names:
NAVMOVBOT
NAVMOVTOP

On each clip I have these actions.......

onClipEvent (mouseDown) {
this.swapDepths("_root.NAVMOVTOP");
}

And.....

onClipEvent (mouseDown) {
this.swapDepths("_root.NAVMOVBOT");
}

Now why in the neverending world will this not work?
Any suggestions?
If so, you will get a happy face for the day.

Well...unless you set the clips to a depth initially with swapDepths, there isn't a depth to swap with.

and how might i do that

You don't have to set a clip's level in order to swapdepth, all clips have depth based on their arrangement on the stage.

I think it's because you're trying to use a mouseDown event on a movieclip that you're getting nothing to happen

Here's an example with one line of code moved onto a button.

code:

---

on(press){

_root.navmovbot.swapDepths(_root.navmovtop);

}

---

press the square to swap the depths of the circles.
Likewise, you can add a button on top of your circular movieclips to do the same thing.
