EaselJS / setChildIndex with Movieclips added by hand

[pastorpixel]

The DisplayList methodes like, addChild, setChildIndex(),addChildAt() etc work fine when you add a DisplayObject with Javascript/ EaselJS

for example I have Javascript in the first frame, putting a Movieclip with linkage name "Car"

var mc = new lib.Car();

this.addChild(mc);

When I add a Movieclip from the library by Hand to the stage und put an Instance Name in the propertyinspector, can I use addChild, to put it to the top of all Displayobjects

for example, the movieclip has the instancename myMc

this.addChild(this.myMc);

should put it on top

Is it possible in easeljs

I tried getting it to work, but I had no luck. A work around could be to add a duplicate of the symbol on the top, and then hide the one you don't want to be visible.

thanks, it works

var myMcClone =  this.myMc.clone();

myMc.visible = false;

this.addChild(myMcClone);
