    Masking Problem

    I've got a problem with masking that has me stumped. I've got two separate masks on two separate layers. Each mask is a movieclip, so that I can use each mask with an onPress function. When the movie is played, the masks are working fine, but only ONE mask is being recognized by the OnPress function. The other is not. When I change the order of the masks in the layer stack, the opposite mask is recognized. Strangely, it is the lower mask in the layer stack in each case which is recognized. Here's a fla illustrating the problem:

    Any ideas?

    Masks only work with one layer, put both masks (mc's) into one mc on one mask layer and target them there.
