Possible to render images in 2 different groups in alternating order?

Hello

I currently have an eBook scene where I have 2 characters.

One of them is a single sprite animation.

The other is a group composed of torso, legs, arms, etc.

I am using groups, so I can rotate both the torso and the arm for an accurate animation.

I would need to render the 1st character between the torso and the arm. Is this possible?

Thanks,

I think you mean for display order, am I correct? If so it would be easiest to just use toFront() or toBack() to position things how you want them.

Is that what you are trying to do, or have I misunderstood?

From what I read, toFront works only within a group, however the 1st character in not in the group of the 2nd one

I would need a way to mix layers between them, but still keep relative movement that groups offer [import]uid: 127214 topic_id: 26453 reply_id: 107429[/import]
