Are you saying that you want to dispatch an event from one Application to another Application? You can't do that as far as I know. You would have to use LocalConnection for this. You can dispatch an event from one NativeWindow in an Application to another NativeWindow in the same Application. - Gordon

Just have one window broadcast an event, and have the other listen for it. mike chambers [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:mesh%40adobe.com> Michael Schmalle wrote: > > > I would go out on a limb and say yes. > > Not in alpha but, if we are going to be able to addChild() on a newly > created window, I don't see why you could communicate with a window that > you created from the main app. > > Peace, Mike > > On 22 Mar 2007 14:32:13 -0700, *Mark Doberenz* < [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:dobieag01%40gmail.com> > <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:dobieag01%40gmail.com> >> wrote: > > Oh yeah, I remember playing with those a long time ago... not the > nicest stuff to deal with from what I can remember. > > Thanks > > On 22 Mar 2007 14:28:43 -0700, * Carlos Rovira* > <[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:carlos.rovira%40gmail.com> <mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:carlos.rovira%40gmail.com> >> wrote: > > You should read about LocalConnection.
