Dang Alex, you're the man. I never would have figured out its because
of the textfield. Your proposed solution of an invisible item over the
titlebar works perfectly, and since my real use case is a subclass of
Panel I can easily integrate this approach.
One odd thing maybe you can enlighten me on though is that it seems
like I have to create the cover piece in updateDisplayList() because
doing it in createChildren() doesn't work. The item isn't even visible
if I create it in createChildren(). Any ideas why? Here is the code I
have tried inside both methods.
if(!c)
{
c = new Canvas();
c.x = c.y = 0;
c.width = this.width;
c.height = this.titleBar.height;
c.setStyle("backgroundColor", 0x000000);
this.rawChildren.addChild(c);
}
Thanks a ton, greatly appreciated.
