I'm opening popups (subclass of TitleWindow) in Flex by using
PopUpManager.createPopUp(parent, TrainCard)
Is there any way I can get a list of popups that are open? Or do I need to keep my own list?I need to make sure I'm not opening the same popup twice.
With the PopupManager it's possible to add/create/remove a new popup. But i can't find a way to get the top most popup without overriding this class (which something you want to do for a big Flex application).So far I found this solution, which is more kinna of work around. So if any body has a better solution, i will be pretty much happy to read it.
Assuming the you call the addPopup/createPopup with the parameter PopUpManagerChildList.POPUP, example :
PopUpManager.createPopUp(parent,MyPopupClass,true,PopUpManagerChildList.POPUP);

I've created a custom component with several inline item renderers that I use as a tooltip. The height of the component is unknown, as the data contents of the component are not known until runtime.
However, when displaying the tooltip, occasionally it extends beyond the boundaries of the flash application, thus, I'd like to be able to detect this occurrence and reposition the tip.
The problem is that the height and width of the component are, apparently, not available until after being rendered by the popup manager. (i.e. they are always 0)But, I do not know any way of finding out when the popup is actually rendered and, therefore, the height/width values available.

i'm using the centered pop up window script from: [URL]. i have multiple buttons in my flash movie which open screenshot html pages in external browser windows. the script works fine except when a popup window stays open. the rest of the buttons don't open/replace past that one popup. i tried changing the window name in the onRelease script to screen1, screen2, etc for each button, but that didn't work.

View 2 RepliesI am trying to figure out how to open a pop up window in my Air application, in a secondary Window, instead of the main application window.I am using the ReusableFX components, which include a custom DataGrid with filtering and other capabilities. The filtering feature displays a pop up window via PopUpManager when you click on the top of a column in the grid.
PopUpManager.addPopUp(this, FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication as DisplayObject);
The problem is that the pop up window opens in the main application - I am assuming because of the 'topLevelApplication' reference.So, I need a way to open this window in the current Air "s:Window". I am assuming I need a way to walk up : this.parent.parent or this.owner.owner - though I have tried that and it did not seem to work (it said null reference).OR, is there a way to get the current top most window / component (NOT the main application / window)?
Update:I decided to create a new project for the component, and add in the Air libraries. Now I am able to access the "NativeApplication.nativeApplication.activeWindow" call. That gives me the correct Air window. However, it does not seem to be working:
PopUpManager.addPopUp(this, NativeApplication.nativeApplication.activeWindow as DisplayObject);
My popup does not appear. I am assuming because "activeWindow" is not actually a DisplayObject?(so how do I get the DisplayObject if that's the case?)
If you create a popup via:[code]It will create a popup and bring it on top of any other visual piece. I have one problem though. This 'popup' needs to stay up even when the user interacts with the background.I would use modal, but I need the ability to interact with the back. Any way to tell the popup manager not to remove the popup when the user clicks off of it?

View 5 RepliesHow should I open a popup window from a swf?My method - create another panel and overlay on the original swf.The problem is that the size of the original swf is small compared to the size of the popup window.No JS call allowed which does not allow me to use window.open javascript call.I need to be able to communicate with this popup window as well. This eliminates opening a new window using navigateToURL method.
View 2 RepliesI have different buttons to open another browser window using getURL. The problem is each button opens a new browser window. If a user does not close the window when coming back, there would be many browser windows open the same time. A few users get confused by this thinking that they are accessing the same page.Is there a way to control it so the popup will open all at the same window (if someone chooses not to close the window each time)?

I read this: "JavaScript is interpreted by the browser, so whenever you call JavaScript code from the Flash movie you'll have to embed the movie into a HTML document first."
