How can you create slideover screens (within one flash movie) that prevent your clicks from hitting the main interface below the slideover screen? I have a simple game, and I want an instruction screen to slide over the game and allow you to close the slide over screen when finished. The problem is that a click does two things at once, it closes the slide over screen and counts as a move in the game below.

How can I keep it from clicking too many things at once?
