Hi Flexy,
If you create a popup window using the PopupManager than it is not
part of the normal view hierarchy and so it will not create scroll
bars on the application object, even if it is placed partially out of
the visible region. Pop-ups float above the main application window
so they will not affect the size or scroll policy of that object at all.
From the docs:
"The SystemManager maintains multiple lists of children, one each for
tooltips, cursors, popup windows. This is how it ensures that popup
windows "float" above the main application windows and that tooltips
"float" above that and cursors above that. If you simply examine the
numChildren property or call the getChildAt() method on the
SystemManager, you are accessing the main application window and any
other windows that aren't popped up. To get the list of all windows,
including popups, tooltips and cursors, use the rawChildren property."

If you want to scroll them around, perhaps popups are not really what
you're after?
It is possible to show a scroll bar on the application object, but
not through pop-ups.
Cheers,
Lach

Hi,
I am adding titlewindows using the popupManager on the application
canvas, I have many of them so some are beyond the screen height,
However, no vertical scrollbar shows – how can I make sure the
vertical scroll bar shows if there are controls beyond the screen
height?
Thanks,
Flexy.
