Drag and Drop OS-style

No problem. If i'm understanding you correctly, you want the movieclip to be on top of all other clips when it's clicked anywhere, even if the aClip isn't clicked, right?

If that's the case, then use this:

import flash.geom.Rectangle;
for (var i:uint = 1; typeof(this["dmc_"+i]) != "undefined"; i++) {
	this["dmc_"+i].aClip.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, startD);
	this["dmc_"+i].aClip.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, stopD);
	this["dmc_"+i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, mUp);
}

function mUp(evt:MouseEvent):void {
	this.setChildIndex(MovieClip(evt.currentTarget), this.numChildren - 1);
}
function startD(evt:MouseEvent):void {
	var rect:Rectangle = new Rectangle(0, 0, stage.stageWidth-evt.currentTarget.parent.width, stage.stageHeight-evt.currentTarget.parent.height);
	evt.currentTarget.parent.startDrag(false, rect);
	this.setChildIndex(MovieClip(evt.currentTarget.parent), numChildren - 1);
}
function stopD(evt:MouseEvent):void {
	evt.currentTarget.parent.stopDrag();
}

That worked like a charm! You are a genius.

Thank you very much!
