An alternative may be to allow something more central than the menu take care of showing and hiding the WidgetPopup:
Let's say you have one main Shell (uibinder for the main layout) You could create a new Event (ShowWidgetpopupEvent) and declare the handler and have the main Shell implement the new handler Then the menu just needs an instance of the eventBus to fire off the new event. and any other component can also show the WidgetPopup by firing the event This may be a little more sound from an Architecture stand point and even then I doubt it is the best. Just depends on how you are implementing everything else (the more sound your app already is, the more sound your implementation can be) On Feb 9, 3:03 pm, Ashton Thomas <ash...@acrinta.com> wrote: > Yeah should be just fine.
