Re: [flexcoders] Bringing application to front
Ian, No, it's not an AIR application. I'm using Flexbuilder 3, lifecycle 2.5. Is there a way to get around to it?

Re: [flexcoders] Bringing application to front
If it's an AIR application, you can use the .orderToFront() method of your WindowedApplication. http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/langref/mx/core/WindowedApplication.html#orderToFront%28%29 Ian On Tue, Sep 15, 2009 at 10:03 PM, nhid wrote: > > > Hi, > > How should I go about implementing the following case: > > There's a timer on my application which will give an alert to the user 5 > minutes before the session times out.

[flexcoders] Bringing application to front
Hi, How should I go about implementing the following case: There's a timer on my application which will give an alert to the user 5 minutes before the session times out. It's working, but the problem is since the alert is a popup window, it appears inside the application and when the application is behind another application (browser, etc) or is minimized, the user won't see the alert and the applicaiton logs the user out because no action was taken. How can I bring the application to the front (to focus) or maximize it so the user will see the alert? Any suggestion is appreciated. Thank you!
