Re: [flexcoders] PopUp from within a class
Yea, I'm going to need some help. I ended up using:
Application.application.callLater(parseOrders, args);
parseOrders is a new function where I basically broke out the loop into a seperate call to the above listed code. This still did not display my popup before the loop properly. Maybe i'm not doing it right?
for each(var vendorOrder:VendorOrder in vendorOrders){
var args:Array = new Array();
args.push(vendorOrder);
Application.application.callLater(parseOrders, args);}
private function parseOrders(vendorOrder:VenorOrder):void {
// do what was in my loop originally instead of callLater()...
}
