FLASH: bring to front ...

[Gavin Prior]

Hi all,


The problem;


I have a wall with a hole in the centre.  Behind the wall is a circle that

is draggable and goes "behind" the wall.  I want to be able to press the

space bar and the circle will be in front of the wall and also draggable in

front of the wall.



What I have done so far;


I have a button (the circle) which is in a movie.  I have given the instance

a name; "ball1".  This sits in a layer behind the wall. This all works fine

and drags nicely behind the wall with a snap back action on release.


I also have another instance of the circle called "ball 2" which is off the

stage.  I have duplicated this and called it "ball 3" with a depth of 10 so

that it sits in front of the wall and is also draggable with the snap back

action and a drop area.


Nice...



What I can't figure out;


The interaction bit between clicking the spacebar, removing "ball 1" (this

is on a layer so will I have to "hide" it rather than removing?), and then

bringing up "ball 3".  It's all there, I just can't get my head around this

one bit.


Any suggestions?


Thanks for listening.

:]me.
