Robolegs 2 and Flex popup

Hi,

I have created Title window with one button on it and two mediators, for window and for button.
In the AppConfig I have linked views and mediators:
mediatorMap.map(TestPopupWindow).toMediator(TestPopupWindowMediator); // popup window
mediatorMap.map(TestPopupButton).toMediator(TestPopupButtonMediator); // and button on it

Than I do standard procedure for opening popup window:
var w:TestPopupWindow = new TestPopupWindow();
PopUpManager.addPopUp(w, FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication as DisplayObject);

In the result popup is open but it does not work, mediators does work as it is expected.
What I am missing here?

In the Introduction to Robotlegs 2 presentation I found information about View Management :
33. .view management
34. viewManager.addContainer(contextView); viewManager.addHandler(mediatorMap); viewManager.addWatcher(stageWatcher); viewManager.addContainer(myPopUp); wire view handlers to view watchers
35. viewManager.addContainer(contextView); viewManager.addHandler(mediatorMap); viewManager.addWatcher(stageWatcher); viewManager.addContainer(myPopUp); wire view handlers to view watchers viewManager.addContainer(myPopUp); viewManager.addContainer(myAIRWindow); native support for flex popups and air windows.

Could you please explain how to use it? where do I need to initialize view manager?

Thank you in advance.
Denis.

   Hello Denis,

   The ClassicRobotlegsBundle configures the ViewManager for you. All you need to do is inject it and add the popup as a container (be sure to remove it afterwards as well):

   [Inject] public var viewManager:IViewManager;
   // .. //
   var w:TestPopupWindow = new TestPopupWindow();
   PopUpManager.addPopUp(w, FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication as DisplayObject);
   viewManager.addContainer(w);
   

   Hope that helps!

   Hello Shaun,

   Unfortunately your example did not work, mediation is not happening. But I found what is wrong. I just needed to "addContainer" before adding popup on stage. In this case all my popup mediating are working properly.

   [Inject] public var viewManager:IViewManager;
// .. // var w:TestPopupWindow = new TestPopupWindow();
viewManager.addContainer(w);
PopUpManager.addPopUp(w, FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication as DisplayObject);

   Sounds like this is resolved. Closing this discussion - if you have more questions, you can re-open, or start a new discussion.
