I have a display object set up like such:

Main Stage:  
Container Object 1:  
Display Object 1  
Display Object 2  
Display Object 3  
Display Object 4  
Container Object 2

At the moment, my Container Object 2 appears overtop of the other display objects (as it has a higher z value than Container Object 1). However, I am curious if there is a possibility of changing the z objects such that Display Object 4 is visible ontop of Container Object 2 (which is still overtop of Display Object 1, 2 & 3).
