Hiya guys, I wanted to swap the depths of two movieclips one located in \_level0 the other located in \_level2! I can get it to work when the MC’s are on the same level but not when thier in different levels.

This is the code I’ve tried…

```auto
 _level2.buttons.swapDepths(_level0.caption);

```

Is there anyway to do this?

Thanks in advance, J
