1. Cast the current item as DisplayObject
Var myCurrentItem : DisplayObject = ( currentItem as DisplayObject );
2. Create a point out of the current item x's and y's
var point : Point() = new Point();
point.x = myCurrentItem .x;
point.y = myCurrentItem.y;
3. Use the localToGlobal() function on the current item cast as a
DisplayObject.
Var realX : Number = myCurrentItem.localToGlobal(point).x;
Var realY : Number = myCurrentItem.localToGlobal(point).x;
4. Complain to adobe that objects can not determine this for themselves
or show me a better way

Subject: [flexcoders] How to get the real X & Y of a repeater item
Hi,
In my app I create a repeater the generats VBoxes each with button in
it.
When the user clicks on the button I want to generate a small dialog
that will open up under the button.
I know how to get the repeater current item and target and current
target but I can't find the real X & Y of the button.
Am I going in the wrong direction?
