I have a button beneath a movie clip.  
By beneath , I mean on a lower layer level, not inside an movie clip.

The problem is my button is not active, because it`s blocked by a movie clip above it.  
How can I solve this problem without changing the order of my layers?

P.S. I`M USING FLASH CS3 with AS3.0
