 Basically yes.  Parents size their children in Flex and popups don't have a 
 parent.  (actually they do because they are parented by SystemManager, but 
 SystemManager doesn't layout its children.

Hi Tracy, I originally tried that, but if you are using a transition (say, to 
resize over 500ms) it breaks the transition (it just instantly resizes).

 Subject: [flexcoders] Why does percentWidth / percentHeight not work with
 popups?
 
  
 
 I'm trying to create a popup at 100% of the width / height of the
 application. But it just ignores these values. I've had to work around the
 problem by doing:
 
 BindingUtils.bindProperty(popup, width, this, width);
 BindingUtils.bindProperty(popup, height, this, height);
 
 (Where 'this' is the application).
 
 The reason I'm trying to do this is I've got a popup that I want centred in
 the view, but it has different states which change the size of the popup.
