[flexcoders] Question about popup
Here is my code:
var c:Classes = new Classes();
var popupWindow:TitleWindow = new TitleWindow;
this line works fine:
popupWindow = c.showPopupWindow(DisplayObject(this), saveAsPriceList);
var saveAs:saveAsPriceList = new saveAsPriceList;
but this wouldn't compile:
popupWindow = c.showPopupWindow(DisplayObject(this), saveAs);
Message:
1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type saveAsPriceList to an
unrelated type Class.
public function showPopupWindow(parent:DisplayObject,
WhatToShow:Class):TitleWindow
{
// Create a modal TitleWindow container.
var popupWindow:TitleWindow =
TitleWindow(PopUpManager.createPopUp(parent, WhatToShow,
true));
PopUpManager.centerPopUp(popupWindow);
return popupWindow;
}
Any idea?
Thanks

YES! It is POSSIBLE! :)
See this sample code. It works. The menu is always above the Alert box.
http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml";
xmlns="*" creationComplete="showWindow()">
import mx.controls.Alert;
private var window:Alert;
public function raiseMenus():Void
{
menuBar.getMenuAt(0).setDepthAbove(window);
}
public function showWindow():Void
{
window = Alert.show("Move me close to the menu bar above, then
open the menu and see that it's higher than me.", "Window",
Alert.NONMODAL);
}

RE: [flexcoders] question about popup manager
Maybe I'm not making sense when I explain what I want...I want my left-hand navigation menu to ALWAYS be on top of EVERYTHING...no matter how many pop-up windows I pop-up using the PopupManager, I still want that left-hand menu to lay on top of everything...even these TitleWindow pop-ups I'm openings using the PopupManager...is that possible? Is there a way to set the depth of my menu so it is ALWAYS on top (DepthManager.setDepthTo(kTopmost)) for my menu VBox component? robert l. brueckmann senior web developer merlin securities 595 madison avenue new york, ny 10022 p: 212.822.4821 f: 212.822.4820 -Original Message- From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Manish Jethani Sent: Thursday, June 09, 2005 2:35 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [flexcoders] question about popup manager On 6/8/05, Robert Brueckmann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: [snip] > Despite my call to set the depth of my menu above the News popup, the depths > are still the same and the news remains on top of everything else. > > Why isn't the setDepthAbove call working? It works only for siblings.

RE: [flexcoders] question about popup manager
Your example isn't working in this case Manish. Here's exactly what
I'm doing. User clicks on a link which executes the following code:
var win:TitleWindow =
TitleWindow(PopUpManager.createPopUp(
this, News, false, {title: "Newsworthy", width:
650, height: 300, topLevel: menu}));
I am passing a reference to my lefthand navigation (menu) TO the
TitleWindow I’m opening up as a variable named topLevel.
Now, in my News.mxml file that gets opened up here I have in its
creationComplete a call to adjustDepth() which looks like this:
public function adjustDepth()
{
trace("topLevel.depth: " +
topLevel.depth);
trace("this.depth: " + this.depth);
topLevel.setDepthAbove(this);
trace("topLevel.depth: " + topLevel.depth);
trace("this.depth: " + this.depth);
}
When I click on the link to open the News popup, which I’m hoping
is partially obscured by the left-hand menu, it isn’t and the trace
output looks like this:
topLevel.depth: 4
this.depth: 42
topLevel.depth: 4
this.depth: 42
Despite my call to set the depth of my menu above the News popup, the
depths are still the same and the news remains on top of everything else.
Why isn’t the setDepthAbove call working?

There was a problem with menus not showing in a modal TitleWindow, but
it was easy to fix.

[flexcoders] question about popup manager
I'm creating a non-modal TitleWindow pop-up using the PopupManager and immediately after the pop-up is created I'm calling the swapDepthBelow method on the TitleWindow object with this left-hand menu component I have so the window I just popped up is partially obscured and the left-hand navigation always maintains top-level precedence. It's not working. The TitleWindow, no matter what I try, remains on top of everything. Is there a way around this? robert l. brueckmann senior web developer merlin securities 595 madison avenue new york, ny 10022 p: 212.822.4821 f: 212.822.4820 This message contains information from Merlin Securities, LLC, or from one of its affiliates, that may be confidential and privileged.
