The following example draws thre movie clip instances, using the
getNextHighestDepth()
method as the
depth
parameter of the
createEmptyMovieClip()
method, and labels each
movie clip them with its depth:
for (i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
drawClip(i);
}
function drawClip(n:Number):Void {
this.createEmptyMovieClip("triangle" + n, this.getNextHighestDepth());
var mc:MovieClip = eval("triangle" + n);
mc.beginFill(0x00aaFF, 100);
mc.lineStyle(4, 0xFF0000, 100);
mc.moveTo(0, 0);
mc.lineTo(100, 100);
mc.lineTo(0, 100);
mc.lineTo(0, 0);
mc._x = n * 30;
mc._y = n * 50
mc.createTextField("label", this.getNextHighestDepth(), 20, 50, 200, 200)
mc.label.text = mc.getDepth();
}
