ok, i need to create a border in my movie. i’ve used two buttons for two different types of borders and a NumericStepper to specify the thickness.
i createEmptyMovieClip an mc and then i use moveTo and lineTo to draw the rectangular border inside it.
now, every time the new thickness is specified, a new border should appear and replace the older one. so how do i do this??
i tried using a constant depth value which solved this problem.
but there’s another issue. i have a movieclip already on stage, placed manually by me. i dont want it to get overlapped by the border and so i used swapDepths for it. but if i use a constant depth, every alternate swapDepths puts this movie clip behind the border.
so, first time the border’s behind. now i change thickness and again apply border, the border is over my movieclip.
how do i solve this so that the borders replace themselves and the mc on stage remains on top??
