Hi, For instance;
private var hoverMenu:Menu; hoverMenu = Menu(PopUpManager.createPopUp(this, Menu)); hoverMenu.x = calcXCoord; hoverMenu.y = calcYCoord; hoverMenu.dataProvider = hoverMenuDP; You have complete control over the popup once it is created. All the popup manager does is stick it into the systemManager as a child which then becomes parented by the systemManager not the Application.

I looked into the PopUpManager, but I do not see anything that allows me to position where the popup is (besides centering it). I will keep looking into this, as I need to have it "pop" right to the side and underneath button that is clicked. -- Ann
