[flexcoders] Can't move titlewindow in an Application

[xmwang1982]

Hi experts,

I have a class inheriting TitleWindow, and I add the following code to enable 
drag/drop of the title window by press on the title bar:

private function onCreationComplete(evt:Event):void
{

this.titleBar.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, startDragWin);

this.titleBar.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, stopDragWin);

this.titleBar.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, stopDragWin);  

this.addEventListener(DragEvent.DRAG_DROP, 
moveSelf);
}

private function moveSelf(evt:DragEvent):void
{
this.x = evt.stageX;
this.y = evt.stageY;
}

private function startDragWin(evt:MouseEvent):void
{


this.startDrag();
}



private function stopDragWin(evt:MouseEvent):void
{

this.stopDrag();
}


I added the object as the top level child of an application. However the 
settings of x and y are not working. The window is not moved.

I have been confused for long. Any possible reason?

Layout of application is: layout=absolute

The following attributes were set for the title window in the MXML of the 
application 

MyTitleWindow backgroundAlpha=0.5 bottom=10 right=10 width=400 
height=300...

I guess these initial settings don't matter at all.

Please suggest. Thanks in advance.

in creation complete add this.isPopUp = true;
Make sure u get rid of all the listeners ...
