I think I understand what you're asking, but I might miss. Have you tried making your lnotification component and then just popping it up using PopUpManager? As far as I'm aware, anything that's popped up with PopUpManager shouldn't move when the user scrolls, resizes the browser, etc. You can pull some ideas from my callout component if that would help: http://aaronhardy.com/flex/advanced-callout-component/
If you're talking about anchoring your "trigger" button (the button that pops up the tooltip), then that's different. Make sure your main application is set to absolute layout, then set your button's bottom property like so: bottom="0". Here's an example: <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; layout="absolute"> <mx:Button bottom="0" label="show popup"/> </mx:Application> That will always keep it at the bottom of your application.
