Why can I click through an actor?

So...I have a menu screen, and when the "help" button is "touched", it brings up a help menu (this is all on the same scene). The help menu lays on top of the menu buttons beneath it, but they can still be pressed. How can I make it so anything behind this help menu cant be pressed while the help menu is open?

You could have a boolean attribute, say helpPressed and when the help button is pressed, change the boolean to true, when you exit the help screen change it back to false. Put a condition into the other buttons rules that can only be pressed when helpPressed is false.

That makes sense, thank you so much.
