Try passing in just systemManager instead of systemManager.getSandboxRoot On 7/2/10 11:11 AM, jamesfin james.alan.finni...@gmail.com wrote: Sorry bout that...foo is being passed... var foo:fooEdit = PopUpManager.createPopUp(systemManager.getSandboxRoot(), fooEdit, true) as fooEdit; foo.fooID = 123; PopUpManager.centerPopUp(foo); The loaded SWF is also 3.5.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: IE8/ActiveX FlashPlayer Bug?
Create the simplest test case you can and if the problem reproduces, file a bug. Note that Adobe is closed next week so we won’t be able to assist you until 7/12. The support folks will be working though.
