Wow, I just realized that the mouse events stop on the first registered handler… There is no bubbling in as2?

How could people get by while having only one event handler for nested movieclips? Nothing was nested and everything was positioned relative to the stage?

Man, this is a big readjustment from as3… Any workaround?

Thanks
