It wouldn't be app.localToGlobal it would be child.localToGlobal

It's worth noting that the child application is loaded via SWFLoader.

I need to display a popup window and if I use the x, y values from the child application, they are set to zero, but when loaded into a parent app, they are actually around 200, 200. |-------------------------| | Parent | | | | |----------| | | | Child | | | |----------| | | | | | |-------------------------| Both parent and child are flex apps. But the x,y values for child are {0,0}. I want to popup a dialog which completely covers the child application, from within the child app. Any ideas? Thanks, Mark
