Thx Alex. I thought about that , but I need it look and function like Google Maps when you click a marker (like its part of the app). If I use the popupmanager can I have the popup follow a sprite on the stage?
My sprites are on layer that you can drag around (similar to google maps) so if the user drags the background sprite all sprites on its displaylist will move and the popup/tooltip need to move with it. My app is very cpu/memory intensive so what I am using as of right now is a permanent custom canvas using the new FXG to draw a popup looking box with a pointer (like google maps) then when I want to show it over the node I call 'move' and move it into position. I need to keep all my 500+ Sprites lite (they just contain a bitmap). So in keeping it lite I did one canvas in <Application> that I enable/disable/alpha0?1 when it needs to be displayed. I am only allowing one popup in my app to keep cpu/memory use low and I short on screen realestate. Any help is appreciated!
