Duplicate Movie Clip

[thirtyottsixx]

I'm having a problem with this file. dcunningham.addr.com/menu.zip
The buttons are contained in movie clips, and I need to make it so that one clip is on top of the other dependent on which one you click last. I believe duplicate movie clip is the way to do this, but I'm not sure exactly how to make it work.

Any help is appreciate in advance.

To get clips to appear on top of one another under your control you need to use swapDepths().

clip.swapDepths(1000);

...would bring a clip up to the front of the screen assuming that all the other clips on the stage had depths less than 1000.

Using duplicateMovieClip you can set the depth when you create the copy of the clip:

duplicateMovieClip('clip','newClip',1000)
