Has anyone been able to get Alerts to center on anything other than the stage?
The docs for the
show() method document the 4th param as: parent:Sprite (default = null)However, regardless what I pass on this param, the Alert window always centers itself on the stage.
And when I create an instance of the Alert and
trace(myAlert.parent) or go into debug and check the parent of the instance the following is always displayed: _AlertParentTest_mx_managers_SystemManager (where the application is (AlertParentTest.mxml) Is this a bug?
Following is some sample test code I tried:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="vertical" creationComplete="init();">
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="vertical" creationComplete="init();">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import mx.controls.Alert;
private var myAlert:Alert = new Alert();
private function init():void {
myAlert=Alert.show( "init() executes Alert.show()","myAlert.parent:",Alert.OK,Button1);trace("myAlert.parent: "+ myAlert.parent);
}
]]>
</mx:Script>
