[flexcoders] Re: Actual location of UIComponent

[ytseshred]

If you have a references to the panel and the component:

var pnl:Panel;
var cmp:UIComponent;

import flash.geom.Point;

var pnt:Point = pnl.localToGlobal(new Point(cmp.x, cmp.y));

pnt.x and pnt.y will contain the global coordinates of the
UIComponent.  Is that what you're looking for?
