You do not have to worry about depth levels because the
DisplayObjectContainer class that is an ancestor of the MovieClip class handles them internally;
this class also contains methods to swap and reposition the elements in the stack.
import flash.Lib;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
class Main
{
public static function main()
{
var mc = createMovieClip();
drawRect(mc, 0, 0, 200, 200);
var mc2 = createMovieClip(mc);
drawRect(mc, 140, 140, 50, 50);
mc.x = 105;
mc.rotation = 30; // in degrees
}
private static function createMovieClip(?parent : MovieClip) : MovieClip
{
if(parent == null)
parent = Lib.current;
var mc = new MovieClip();
parent.addChild(mc);
return mc;
}
private static function drawRect(mc:MovieClip,x:Float,y:Float,w:Float,h:Float)
{
var g = mc.graphics;
g.lineStyle(1, 0x000000);
g.drawRect(x, y, w, h);
}
}
