Hi All,  
Well, I THOUGHT that I had a grasp on this, but I ran into a wall.  
I am using the Drawing Board AS from this website. I have it (the AS) on level 2.

[AS]  
//Drawing Tool Actions  
\_root.onMouseDown = function() {  
line.moveTo(\_xmouse, \_ymouse);  
line.lineStyle(2, 0x000000, 50);  
this.onMouseMove = function() {  
line.lineTo(\_xmouse, \_ymouse);  
updateAfterEvent();  
}  
}  
\_root.onMouseUp = function() {  
this.onMouseMove = null;  
}  
[/AS]

Everything works great.  
I have the cleanup Button (that works) on level 3:

[AS]  
on (release, releaseOutside, dragOut) {  
\_root.line.clear();  
}  
[/AS]

However, I have dragable menus on several other layers. I can’t figure out for the life of me how to tell the button (that I use to drag the menus) to talk to the function on level2 to tell it that onMouseDown = Null; - or something like that.

here is a link so you can see…
