Hi Barry,
Sorry that the code isn't working out-of-the-box. My popup is being launched from a Cairngorm command (see below). I remember having to fiddle with the references quite a bit. This example isn't really good Cairngorm coding since I'm referencing the application from the command, but it works. Hopefully you will find the correct combination.
Cheers,
-TH
import com.ets.main.view.mainView.searching.SearchingPopupView;
import mx.managers.PopUpManager;
import mx.core.IFlexDisplayObject;
import flash.display.DisplayObject;
public class MyCommand implements Command
{
public var popUpWindow:IFlexDisplayObject;
public function execute(cairngormEvent:CairngormEvent):void
{
var popUpParent:DisplayObject;
popUpParent = Application.application.mainView.mainCanvas;
popUpWindow = PopUpManager.createPopUp(popUpParent,ModelLocator.getInstance().searchingPopUpView,false);
PopUpManager.centerPopUp(popUpWindow);
}
}
