If I am understanding correctly, you can bind the controls in the panel to the selected item in the HorizontalList (or any list-based control)     As Matt has indicated, the precise form of the binding reference depends on exactly how you are populating the dataProvider for the list.

One way that works, but you will sacrifice your close button on the upper right is: In your popup mxml, make it a Panel instead of a TitleWindow.      Other than that, you would probably have to do a centerPopUp in the stopDragging event (of the TitleWindow) to re-center the popup.
