How can I show two layers in 1 scene at the same time?

I want to have a mainlayer with z:0 and a statuslayer with z:1 on top of the mainlayer. I want to show some game status in statuslayer like Level, Money etc... I cant put those status as sprite to mainlayer coz mainlayer will moving around I dont want those status move together. So I decide to add those status to a statuslayer. and also how can I detect the touch on those status(sprite).

Here is the example: LINK
The white area is the mainlayer and the blue area is the statuslayer while the red is the game status information in statuslayer.

Just add 2 layers to your scene -
```
CCLayer* mainLayer = [CCLayer node];
CCLayer* statusLayer = [CCLayer node];
```
Add these layers to your scene -
```
//Self = scene
[self addChild:mainLayer z:0];
[self addChild:statusLayer :z:1];
```
Make sure for which ever layers you want to receive touch you enable -
```
//E.G
myLayer.isTouchEnabled = YES;
```
Then for status layer objects do -
```
[statusLayer addchild:myStatusLayerObject]; //The same for mainLayer
```
If you want to create touchable buttons easily I recommend taking a look at CCMenu and CCMenuItemSprite
