Question

Hi,

I have a background movieclip that has an onRelease event to go to the next page.

When i show i popup on top of this background movieclip, all the popup appears with the hand cursor and if i click it the background gets clicked, though it is not visible.

How can i disable this behavior? In the popup i have buttons, so setting an empty onRelease event to the popup would disable this buttons.

When you show the pop up, Use a dummy button with zero alpha behind the pop up graphic , Make the button hand cursor is false.

<button>.useHandCursor = false;

This dummy button will protect you form clicking on the background movieclip.

I found a way to get this.

I set the background of the popup to be a movieclip with and empty onrelease event and with useHandCursor set to false.

If nobody says anything else i will set this as the answer.
