z-depth ordering

[Triadis]

Here is my take at z-depth ordering:

[swf height="400" width="550" background=#FFFFFF]http://www.triadis.net/public/flash5/alex_windows.swf[/swf]

Here's the FLA:

Let me know if you have any Questions.

You might want to check out the example I have up at
http://www.figleaf.com/development/flash5/

If you mess with yours for a bit you see that you have some funky redraw problems. Mine adjusts this by "bubbling" the selected window to the top rather than directly swapping it up.

Yeah I saw that one. I'm on the Flash Coder list. I made this one cause the code isn't as hefty. Plus I find it easier to manage content this way.

But yours does rock though!

The redraw/refresh thing is a bummer though.

[Triadis]

I used the same code and added a work-around for the refresh/redraw issue.

[swf width=550 height=400 background=#FFFFFF]http://www.triadis.net/public/flash5/alex_windows_refreshfix.swf[/swf]

Now they swap positions fine. They just don't behave the same way as yours. It works though

I honestly don't get it. The first example looked fine to me, and when I clicked on a window it came to the top leaving the others in place.

The last example changes position of other windows when you click on a window. is this something just I see?
