trace(myBtn1_btn.getDepth());
trace(myBtn2_btn.getDepth());
If you load a SWF file called buttonMovie.swf into this document, you could trace the depth
of a button, myBtn4_btn, inside that SWF file using another button in the main SWF:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("myClip_mc", 999);
myClip_mc.loadMovie("buttonMovie.swf");
myBtn3_btn.onRelease = function(){
trace(myClip_mc.myBtn4_btn.getDepth());
};
You might notice that two of these buttons have the same depth value, one in the main SWF
file and one in the loaded SWF file. This is misleading, because buttonMovie.swf was loaded
at depth 999, which means that the button it contains will also have a depth of 999 relative to
the buttons in the main SWF file. Keep in mind that each movie clip has its own internal zorder,
which means that each movie clip has its own set of depth values. The two buttons may
have the same depth value, but the values only have meaning in relation to other objects in the
same z-order. In this case, the buttons have the same depth value, but the values relate to
different movie clips: the depth value of the button in the main SWF file relates to the z-order
of the main Timeline, while the depth value of the button in the loaded SWF file relates to
the internal z-order of the myClip_mc movie clip.
