Well, I think I've solved one part of the problem and stumbled into another.
I looks like PopUpManager.centerPopUp is causing the problem with the background color fill. I create the TitleWindow using PopUpManager.createPopUp and then right after that I call PopUpManager.centerPopUp. A bit later in the code is when I execute the Move animation. If I remove the call to PopUpManager.centerPopUp then the custom content background is drawn. If I leave centerPopUp in, then the content area is filled with the background color. The new problem is that the FormItem labels for the Form in the Window disappear when the Move animation is performed (the form fields are still there). Programming is fun, isn't it? :-) Paul --- In [email protected], "Paul Whitelock" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I have a TitleWindow that uses a BorderSkin (based on HaloBorder) to > draw a custom background in the window's content area.
