Alex:
I have a main application that loads a module using moduleloader, that
module has a user initiated popup.
The main application has a timer that fires off and loads its own popup.
The main application's popup's modalTransparencyColor will color the
module's popup, but, the main application's modalTransparencyBlur has no
affect on the module's popup. This might be a bug.
The only workaround I have found fo far is to loop through all of the
systemManager's children and manually apply a blur filter like so;
var blur:BlurFilter = new BlurFilter();
blur.blurX = 10;
blur.blurY = 10;
blur.quality = BitmapFilterQuality.MEDIUM;
var popUp:IFlexDisplayObject;
for (var i:Number=0;i<systemManager.numChildren;i++)
{
if (systemManager.getChildAt(i) is IFlexDisplayObject)
{
popUp = systemManager.getChildAt(i) as IFlexDisplayObject;
popUp.filters = [blur];
}
}
The problem with this, is that when I clear the blur later, it gets rid
of all filters, including the normal modalTransparency filters in affect
from the normal popups. My blur clear code is;
for (var i:Number=0;i<systemManager.numChildren;i++)
{
var popUp:IFlexDisplayObject;
if (systemManager.getChildAt(i) is IFlexDisplayObject)
{
popUp = systemManager.getChildAt(i) as IFlexDisplayObject;
popUp.filters = null;
}
}

it should go on top of every existing popup and blur everything below.
Make sure you set the childList param to POPUP.

currently have a titlewindow in a canvas, so once I determine the height
& width to use I can make the canvas as big as I want, but how do I make
the canvas background blurry?
