Maxime Cowez commented on FLEX-33293: ------------------------------------- I found another workaround which may be more suitable when using complex components inside PopUpAnchor (it's definitly easier): <s:PopUpAnchor displayPopUp="true"> <custom:PopPanel/> </s:PopUpAnchor> With PopPanel implementing `IFocusManagerContainer` and returning the Application's `focusManager`: public class PopPanel extends SkinnableComponent implements IFocusManagerContainer { .... override public function get focusManager():IFocusManager { return FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication.focusManager; } public function get defaultButton():IFlexDisplayObject { return null; } public function set defaultButton(value:IFlexDisplayObject):void { } ... } > Prompt not displayed when component is inside a PopUpAnchor > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLEX-33293 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-33293 > Project: Apache Flex > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Spark: ComboBox, Spark: PopUpAnchor, Spark: TextArea, > Spark: TextInput > Affects Versions: Apache Flex 4.8 (parity release) > Reporter: Maxime Cowez > Priority: Minor > > When you use an input component that has a `prompt` property in combination > with a PopUpAnchor, the prompt text is never displayed. > Easily reproduced: > <s:PopUpAnchor displayPopUp="true"> > <s:VGroup> > <s:TextInput prompt="test prompt in PopupAnchor"/> > <s:ComboBox prompt="test prompt in PopupAnchor"/> > <s:TextArea prompt="test prompt in PopupAnchor"/> > </s:VGroup> > </s:PopUpAnchor> > "test prompt in PopupAnchor" is not displayed in any of the components. > The bug does not affect DropDownList though; so basically it seems to affect > only those components that inherit from or compose a SkinnableTextBase. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
