If it is easier to understand think of a toolbar that lives in the main form with several non-modal popup windows. Clicking the toolbar will do something to the active popup. So when you click a button in the toolbar I dont want it to remove focus from the active popup, becuase otherwise by the time the button's click fires focus has been moved to the main app. So far a hack that works is to have my own mouseDown handler that runs ahead of the SystemManager and stops the event propagating if the target is my button but I am not currently sure of the consequences of this. --- In [email protected]<mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com>, Tom McNeer <tmcn...@...> wrote: > > First question would be: do you *want* them to be able to click in the main > form? > > If not, you could simply set the "modal" property of the popup to "true" > when you create it. > > > > > -- > Thanks, > > Tom > > Tom McNeer > MediumCool > http://www.mediumcool.com > 1735 Johnson Road NE > Atlanta, GA 30306 > 404.589.0560 >
