Movieclip-button problem

[Stinkin Mushroom]

Hi,

I made 2 buttons that are right next to each other and when i rollover on 1 of them, it must get bigger ==> my problem is: when the button get's bigger it goes under the other button :-( ... How can i say to the movieclip-button to go over the other button?

something like

yourButton.swapDepths(yourButton._parent.getNexthi ghestdepth());

Thanks a lot! It worked! Actually there was a little mistake in your code but thansk to you i got it! :)

It was getNextHighestDepth and not get Nexthighestdepth

thanx

Crap :-( It worked but only for one button ... :-( How do I do so that the other button also has that function?

I tried:

myButton.onRollOver = function(){

myButton.swapDepths(myButton._parent.getNexthighes tdepth());
}

so that each button could have this abilty but it didn't work...

Maybe it is right but then i have to make a onRollOut state so that it stops this depth function... but i don't know how to do that ...

Any ideas? :(

Please, i know one of you know the answer :(



I put my fla in attachment ... i want all the above buttons ( Curriclum, portfolio, ...) to appear above the others when rolling over them ...

Please :(

hmmmmmmmm....the easyest way to solve it...in my opinion should be to create a MC that has as many frames as buttons. on each frame buttons should be placed according to your wish. so for each button the code would be

on (rollOver) {
gotoAndStop(framenumber)
//foo what ever code you have up to now
}

where framenumber is the position in frames.

hope, helps you out.
let me know if it works fine.
