Re: [flexcoders] Re: PopUpManager quick help

[aaron smith]

doesnt seem to work correctly. It actually puts the popup in the negative window space. (see attachment)I wonder why it would do that. is it something to do with canvas / percentWidth / percentHeight. i've event tried commenting that out and it still only puts it at 0,0.

            Hi Aaron,

This code will center the popup relative to the popups's parent.  In 
your case "cn".

PopUpManager.centerPopUp(asm);
