Depth setting

Hi

I’ve set a series of movie clips buttons to automatically assume the highest position on on mouse press - however, I’d like the movie clips to remain under (a lower depth) a movie clip (a ‘picture frame’) on another higher layer.

The depth change for the movie clip buttons was achieved using:

on (press) {
//Start Dragging Movieclip Behavior
startDrag(this, false, 168, 224, 564, 476);
this.swapDepths(this._parent.getNextHighestDepth());

//End Behavior

Any ideas on assigning a higher depth to the ‘picture frame’ on the highest layer - so effectively the movie clip buttons remian underneath it.

I tried masking but not working.

Thanx
