    thank you however it still doest work

    can you help?

    this is my script:

    import flash.events.TimerEvent;

    import flash.events.TouchEvent;

    Multitouch.inputMode = MultitouchInputMode.TOUCH_POINT;

    kfir1.addEventListener(TouchEvent.TOUCH_BEGIN, bgn);

    kfir1.addEventListener(TouchEvent.TOUCH_END, stp);

    var fl_DragBounds_10:Rectangle = new Rectangle(0, 0, stage.stageWidth, stage.stageHeight);

    function bgn(event:TouchEvent):void

    {

    event.currentTarget.startTouchDrag(event.touchPointID, false, fl_DragBounds_10);

    }

    function stp(event:TouchEvent):void

    {

    event.currentTarget.stopTouchDrag(event.touchPointID);

    if (kfir1.hitTestObject(lion))

    {

    lion.gotoAndPlay(2)

    parent.setChildIndex(lion,1);

    kfir1.visible=0

    }

    }

    Hi udik

    Detect the number of children of the parent container of your event.currentTarget in order to set the highest possible childindex.

    Your stp function:

    function stp (event:TouchEvent):void {
        event.currentTarget.stopTouchDrag(event.touchPointID);
        if (kfir1.hitTestObject(lion)) {
            lion.gotoAndPlay(2)
            parent.setChildIndex(lion,1);
            kfir1.visible = 0
        }
    }

    I'm not sure about your event context (Multitouch.inputMode), but things can't work this way. Mainly setting the setChildIndex for the lion just to 1 puts it in the stacking order of the child array into the second lowest position. To set the lion (in this case) to the top position, find out how many children there are in the parent container and set the lion to the top of the range.

    My suggestion for the stp function:

    function stp (event:TouchEvent):void {
        var hiIdx: int; /* to hold numChildren-1 =/= highest occupied index */
        var ect = event.currentTarget;
        ect.stopTouchDrag(event.touchPointID);
        if (kfir1.hitTestObject(lion)) {
            ect.gotoAndPlay(2);
            // -----------------------------------------
            hiIdx = ect.parent.numChildren - 1;
            ect.parent.setChildIndex(event.target,hiIdx);
            // -----------------------------------------
            kfir1.visible = false;
        }
    }

    hope it helps

    Klaus

    If the movieclips are on the same layer, you can change their z-index position like this

    Put the code in your mouse event.

    parent.setChildIndex(yourMovieClipName, i)
