Re: [flexcoders] Popup Window
Hi, You can use Application.application.width Application.application.height to set the width and height so that toolbar will be visible to click close button.

RE: [flexcoders] Popup window close button fails
It is not automatic. The button just dispatches the close event. You need to define a close event handler. And in that do PopUpmanager.removePopUp(this). Though more often, I just dispatch a custom named event, and have in a listener/handler in the component that created the popup, and in that handler, I get what data I need from the popup on close, like status(ok, cancel) and value if any, then call PopUpmanager.removePopUp(event.target).

Re: [flexcoders] Popup window close button fails
Hi Tracy, Thanks for the explanation. I knew the close event was fired. But I guess I thought the default close event also called the PopUpManager. Maybe it's me, but I think the Lang Ref could be a little clearer about this. Thanks for straightening me out, anyway. -- Thanks, Tom Tom McNeer MediumCool http://www.mediumcool.com 1735 Johnson Road NE Atlanta, GA 30306 404.589.0560
RE: [flexcoders] Popup window stays open with history management enabled
I would use BrowserManager and clear the popup on the url changes From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Erich Cervantez Sent: Friday, December 05, 2008 11:17 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Popup window stays open with history management enabled So I have a ViewStack with history management enabled (and enabled in the Application tag). This enables the user to click the browser's Back and Forward buttons while in the application and it will move the user back or forward through each screen they've visited. Now if one of those screens opens a popup window, clicking the Back and Forward buttons still cycles through each screen in the browser history but the popup stays on the screen! (you can see the views changing behind the popup as you move back and forth) Ideally the popup window should disappear once you hit the Back button and come back when you hit the Forward button, but is this even possible?

I understand the width as a percentage but in as3 you can't do that because

If i do

Is there a way to figure out available space?

RE: [flexcoders] popup window with custom component ( not extending TitleWindow )
WineDetail.mxml There is no property with the name 'PopUpDetail'
The class PopUpDetail, is it in the same folder as WineDetail?
Is the class PopUpDetail in the same folder as the .mxml file with the
application tag in it?
If not, add this line to your script (at the TOP):
import path.to.file.PopUpDetail;

Subject: [flexcoders] popup window with custom component ( not extending
TitleWindow )
I've been working on a Flex application that requires a modal
popupwindow. I have created a PopUpDetail.mxml that uses a Canvas. I
then have another custom MXML component that is also based on a Canvas.
The component is called WineDetail.mxml.
In WineDetail.mxml is a Script block that uses the following AS (
straight from the Flex book ):
--
function openWineDetail()
{
var parentToPopUpOver = this;
var isModal:Boolean = true;
var initObj = {};
var popUp = mx.managers.PopUpManager.createPopUp(
parentToPopUpOver, PopUpDetail, isModal, initObj ); }
--
WineDetail is then put into a Repeater object , something like this:
mx:Repeater id=rp
dataProvider={jumboWS.GetWineTop10.result.diffgram.NewDataSet.Table}
WineDetail wineID={rp.currentItem.ID}
winenumber={rp.currentIndex} winedetaillabel={rp.currentItem.NAME}
wineimage={host}Images/wine/wine_{rp.currentItem.ID}_1.jpg xmlns=*
/
/mx:Repeater
note the xmlns attribute. When i click on a WineDetail component, it's
supposed to create a PopUpWindow, but i never got it to work.I'm getting
the following error, among others:
WineDetail.mxml There is no property with the name 'PopUpDetail'
It might be something obvious i'm missing here, but i'm working against
a killer deadline, and this close to find another hack around it...if
somebody has a clue, you may enlighten me :) ( I figured that it's
something as simple as using a Titlewindow instead of a Canvas? )
Thnx
