You will have to use localToGlobal, but first things first... You are correct, selectedItem returns an Object, not a DisplayObject, however I am pretty sure you can do list.getChildAt(list.selectedIndex) to get the display object, and then go from there. - Taka On Mon, Jan 4, 2010 at 12:44 PM, Paul Andrews wrote: > Cor wrote: > >> Not sure, but have you looked into : localToGlobal? >> >> > Yes, I did, but no luck.
