How do I bring an element layer to the front

I want to use code to bring elements to the front.
The same way I would do in flash by using addChild where it brings that symbol on top of others?
How would I do that with codes?

If you have multiple elements opening in the same area, how can we make the last element clicked be the one in front.
sym.$('symbol').css('z-index', 99); works great for one element but not multiples,
Do you know a solution for multiple elements opening in one area, making the last one opened be on Top?

How to bring a video layer in the front of the other?

I'm trying to find how to make a smaller video running in the front of the actual video (for example when gamers play their game and we can see them in the video in the top corner commentating), but i can't find a thing which brings to front one sequence or sends to back one, and my smaller video keeps staying in the back of all the layers. Please guide me, I'm sorry for asking such a basic question but I am searching for hours now.

Hi Tuztanc,
Can you try putting it on a higher video track in the Timeline?
Thanks,

The flash clip is always in fron of my drop down spry menu. How can i bring my spry menu to the front?

Hi, Can someone pls help. I could get my dropdown spry menu to be shown as current when it pop outs, it goes behind my flash clip. How can i bring the spry menu to the front?

well this is the embedded code:
<object width="400" height="301">
          <param name="wmode" value="transparent">
          <param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" />
          <param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" />
          <param name="movie" value="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=***&server=vimeo.com&show_title=0&show_byline=0&show_portrait=0&color=00ADEF&fullscreen=1" />
          <embed src="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=9959732&server=vimeo.com&show_title=0&show_byline=0&show_portrait=0&color=00ADEF&fullscreen=1" width="400" height="301" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always"></embed>
        </object>
So I think that's ok? For the rest, all I changed in the spry menu is that I multiplied the z-index twice (menu and submenus) by 10. But that can't be the problem...

How do I install Photoshop Elements 6 on the Mac-mini?

How do I install Photoshop Elements 6 on the Mac-mini? I keep getting the following message:
x Installation cannot continue until the following applications are closed:
flash_server
Please close the application(s) listed above and click "Try Again" to continue the installation. Click Cancel to exit Setup.
How can I resolve this problem without screwing anything up? Your help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Your right. It won't make any sense to subscribe for a software that I don't own. I have CS5 on my Dell Laptop which has been giving me issues, so I re-installed the Operating System along with all my editing programs and nothing more. So I can toggle between the Mac and the PC to get the job done in the meantime. I will eventually get CS6 for the Mac.

How do i move my favourit apps to the front page ?

how do i move my favorit apps to the front page ?

Tap and hold the icon until it starts to wiggle. Then slowly and carefully drag it over to the edge of the screen until the screen "flips" to the front page, then you can drop it.

How do I 'assign a higher layer to the object on the master' (page numbers on master) I understand the layer needs to be at the top to show above placed images on pages but how do I do this?

I've added the page numbers to my master pages. They are displaying on the pages but I have images on the individual pages that are covering the numbers. I understand I need to assign a higher layer to the object but I don't understand how to do that. Please help me? Please explain a simply clearly as possible, I've read other answers but still don't understand. Wish it was as simple as select object, right click, edit layer!
Many thanks!

Layers panel;
Create new layer
Switch to Master page
Make sure new layer is on top in the Layers panel, if not drag the layer on top in the Layers panel.
Select (click once on) that top layer (pen symbol appears behind that layer in the Layer panel)
Now draw your page numbers etc on the Mastet page
From now on, select (click once on) any Layer in the Layers panel that is below the layer you used on your Master page items and create new objects in your document pages.
If you accidently created objects on a 'wrong' layer:
Select those objects
You will see a square behind the layers name in the Layers panel
Click and hold the mouse on that square and drag it behind the name of the layer you want to move the objects to.

How do I bring an applescriptobjc app to the foreground?

Hi again
Another question I cannot find the answer to, I have written an ASOC app that displays a menu of other ASOC apps which can then be selected. All works fine but the selected app always opens in the background, I have to command tab to bring it to the foreground, is there a command to bring the selected app to the foreground/frontmost ? As usual, any help gratefully received.

It's always better if you explain and show what you tried when asking a question here. It prevents the current situation of people responding and suggesting things.
My suggestion, have you tried using an
tell Application "app"
activate
end tell
From the man page:
If a tell statement targets a local application and executes any statements that require a response from the application, then AppleScript will launch the application if it is not already running. The application is launched as hidden, but the script can send it an activate command to bring it to the front, if needed.

Bring background app window to the front from daemon

I have a daemon running that, under certain circumstances, needs to bring an already running applications window to the front (this is a pre login agent), thats not the hard part. The part I'm having trouble with is giving the window firstResponder when it is first brought to the front. When it does not have firstResponder it grayed out and icky....im not a fan of icky. If anyone has any tricks or tips on how one might fix that, they would be greatly appreciated

toFront()
Some platforms do not allow Windows which own other Windows to appear on top of those owned Windows. Some platforms may not permit this VM to place its Windows above windows of native applications, or Windows of other VMs. This permission may depend on whether a Window in this VM is already focused. Every attempt will be made to move this Window as high as possible in the stacking order; however, developers should not assume that this method will move this Window above all other windows in every situation.
Because of variations in native windowing systems, no guarantees about changes to the focused and active Windows can be made. Developers must never assume that this Window is the focused or active Window until this Window receives a WINDOW_GAINED_FOCUS or WINDOW_ACTIVATED event. On platforms where the top-most window is the focused window, this method will probably focus this Window, if it is not already focused.

Bring a windows program to the front

I searched for this but didn't find anything that answered my question.
Is it possible to control programatically which windows programs are at the front?
So if I was running a vi (which is on top) and I needed to automatically bring a running windows program to the front??
Then when I was done bring the running vi back to the front.
How can that be done?
Thanks
Rick.
Solved!

How do I stop Firefox from coming to the front automatically?

This happens when Firefox is open in the back ground to a web site and I am working in another program in the foreground. If the web site that is open sends me a message (eg., a new email or message from someone), Firefox automatically comes to the front, interrupting whatever I am doing in the other program (eg., Word).

i have even turned off itunes helper in the log in menu.
Did you remove iTunes Helper from your Login Items?
If not, you need to remove it from the Login iTunes. Checking an item in your Login Items list hides the item during startup, it doesn't turn it off or not checking the item doesn't turn it off. You need to remove it from your Login Items list if not removed.

How do I programmatically display jpeg files on the front panel

Hi,
I would like to be able to programmatically display various jpeg images on the front panel of a VI. I would mostly like to be able to display one image at a time and have the ability to programmatically change the image to different ones under program control. I found a picture indicator but not sure how to use if or if this is the best way. Thanks for any help.
Dave Adams

Yes, you can use a picture indicator.
The attached simple codelet shows how to display a jpeg image on it (Make sure the image indicator is big enough).
Let us know if you need help with the rest of the coding.

How to check a query element based on the technical name of a query builde?

We often see, e.g., 401OQ2EEM5EJH4GQ5N2HFNE7P as a query element of a query builder. How to know what kind of InfoObj. or R2R link it would be base on the long technical name? We remember there is a table to look these up, what's the table name and how to look for it's description name?
Thanks

hi Ari,
The table you recommend seems to only work for Report to Report link, but not for query element, is there any other table that we can find which InfoObj. is used for this long technical name in query?
Thanks and we have given you rewards points.

Bring loaded external swf to the front

Hi,
I am now implementing to create a website using side scrolling platform game approach. Since the player/actor (character that moves according to keyborad events) should always be at the top layer, I am having difficulties to get my loaded swf on top of the player. I am currently using Flash cs6 (as3).
Basically, in my main stage, there are 3 layers. 1 for actionscript, the scond one for player and lastly for background.
Layer player contains player mc and background mc.
Background mc contains visual and collisions layers.
Anything that got to do with visual, i have to put it in visual layer.
In visual layer i have backgroundcontainer mc
So, as i put the button in the backgroundcontainer mc to call the external swf, the loaded external swf appears in the container.
(I am using load/unload snippet code to call the external swf)
I want the external swf to appear on top of the player.
for (var fl_ChildIndex_2:int = 0;
        fl_ChildIndex_2 < this.numChildren;
        fl_ChildIndex_2++)
    this.getChildAt(fl_ChildIndex_2).addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToBringToFront_2);
function fl_ClickToBringToFront_2(event:MouseEvent):void
    this.addChild(event.currentTarget as DisplayObject);
Any help would greatly appreciated

If you want an object to move atop all others you can just use addChild(thatobject), where thatobject is the item you want to move atop anything else. I don't know what object(s) your loop is attempting to act on, but it appears to be trying to change the index of all child objects rather than just one.
