How to make MovieClip not block touch events

Hey guys,

I am trying to do something that should be simple.  I have a touch listener on a button, however this button has a MovieClip that sits on top of it, so my button below it will not receive the click event from the mouse.  How can I keep the MovieClip above the button but allow the mouse click event to pass to the button?

Thanks

Assuming you named the MovieClip "myMovieClip"

write

myMovieClip.mouseChildren = false;

myMovieClip.mouseEnabled = false;

The ClickEvent should pass through the MovieClip unharmed.
