Actor depth?

Okay, so I have some actors which are supposed to behave like part of the background. Problem is because they are created in-scene, they always overlap above the player actor. Is there some way to set an actor depth so that this doesn't happen? If not, could it be added?

    Right click ----> Send to back. BTW right click on Mac is Control+Click.

    Doesn't work. As I stated, they are generated in-scene. Can't right-click something that doesn't exist in the scene editor. That does help with the actor that spawns them though, so thanks for that.

    Please check with our wiki on layers to know more about bringing actors to the front or to the back. http://gamesalad.com/wiki/scene_layers

    Although this will not solve the issue with spawned actors, it has been brought to our attention to add this feature.

    Actually, That did partially solve the spawned actor problem, thanks! Apparently the spawned actors are always at the top of the layer of the actor that spawned them, so I just had to make a layer under everything else, and put the generator actor there. I say partially because it doesn't work if the actor that spawns them is supposed to be above the spawned actors, so setting spawned actor depth would still be a useful feature.
