Hi all,

I’m currently working on an app in Flex and want to give the user the option of clicking on an object and launching a new information menu! For example, I have a bubble chart and I want the user to be able to click on a bubble and for a new mini panel to open on the screen displaying some info on the bubble!

I’ve tried popUpManager but I don’t want the main screen to get locked when the mini panel opens up! That is I want the mini panel to be displayed in the corner of my main app! Anyone have any ideas how to do this?!

Thanks a mil in advance for any help,
