I'm using the panel as a popup.  If the panel pops up over a model window (i.e. an Alert.show( “something”) is shown at the time the panel is created), the panel throws an error when dragged.

TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert mx.core::FlexSprite@22a6581 to mx.core.UIComponent.

There is one issue if you set the modal to true if you use your panel as a popUp then you get an error in the class at line 218 regarding the change of a sprite to a UIComponent.

– Inner SuperPanelPlus should be clipped when its bounds exceed the outer SuperPanelPlus. Instead, it can be placed anywhere, however when the outer panel is resized the inner panel snaps to (0,0)
– When more than one inner panel is created, only the last panel seems to be able to be moved or resized. When you watch the panel titles, you will see that they actually switch places and the bottom panel moves.

I made a few small changes, mostly adding trace statements so problems could be seen more easily.

Also, I couldn’t get what Jamie above suggests to work. I was able to add an event listener for FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE and have the handler function call “positionChildren()”. That seems to fix the issue.

Add this line to “addListeners”:
this.addEventListener(FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE, posKids);

Then add this to the class:
private function posKids(evt:Event):void{
this.positionChildren();
}
