How send layer do back or front

Question

Hello guys! How can I make a "bring to front" with a layer in
run time? I can make this in design time, but I need make this in
run time, because I need have this functionality in a application
for kids that a child can alter objects position.
Ex.:
Layer "A" contains a picture
Layer "B" contains a text
In design time, layer "A" is over layer "B". How can I change
this in run tim, making layer "B" over layer "A" ?

I don't know how the user is to initiate this action but I'll
assume that
he/she will click on one of the two sprites. Put this code on
both sprites.
I'm going to assume the two sprite channels are 15 and 16 but
you should
change the numbers below to suit your layout. Create one
behavior and
assign it to both sprites.
on mouseUp me
spr1 = 15
spr2 = 16
if me.spriteNum = spr1 then
if sprite (me.spriteNum).locZ = spr1 then
sprite (me.spriteNum).locZ = spr2
sprite (spr2 ).locZ = spr1
else
sprite (me.spriteNum).locZ = spr1
sprite (spr2 ).locZ = spr2
end if
else
if sprite (me.spriteNum).locZ = spr1 then
sprite (me.spriteNum).locZ = spr2
sprite (spr1).locZ = spr1
else
sprite (me.spriteNum).locZ = spr1
sprite (spr1).locZ = spr2
end if
end if
end
It seems like a lot and it might be. On the spurr of the
moment, it's what
I came up with and it works. This will swap layers regardless
of which of
the two sprites is clicked. If you want it to work
differently, let me
know.
