How do I make click events work *only* on top sprites?

When two sprites overlap and I click with the mouse in the overlapping area, both sprites receive a click event. As it is now I sometimes get click events for sprites that I cannot even see because they are completely obscured behind another sprite.

How can I make it so that only the top-most (or front most) sprite gets a click event?

If all of your objects are in a family, you can do this

on touched "FamilyOfObjects"

(second condition) Pick Top Instance -> FamilyOfObjects - set opacity to 50

it will only pick the highest object in the stack that was touched.

Pick top/bottom instance is found in the very bottom right of the event actions btw.

justifun Perfect! Thanks for your help.
