Alert on top of Window component

Question

Hello my dear friends:
I Ihav a Window COmponent which I programmatically created on
stage.
When I hit the close button I manage to close the Window
component
But I actually need to caLL an Alert box to let the user
choose if he
wishes to close the Window.
I manage to call the Alert box but it appears behind the
Window .
Obviously I need it in front. Any help?
This is my code:
stop();
import mx.managers.PopUpManager;
import mx.containers.Window;
import mx.controls.Alert;
var mi_manejador = function (evta) {
if (evta.detail == Alert.OK) {
trace("La acción se ejecutó");
} else {
trace("La acción se canceló");
Alert.okLabel = "Si";
Alert.cancelLabel = "No";
var miAlerta = Alert.show("¿Deseas abandonar la
prueba?", "Alert",
Alert.OK | Alert.CANCEL, null,
mi_manejador, null, Alert.OK);
var ventanaa:MovieClip = PopUpManager.createPopUp(this,
Window, true,
{contentPath:"preguntas",closeButton:true, title:"Prueba
Corta 1"});
ventanaa.setSize(550,350);
ventanaa._x = 25;
ventanaa._y = 25;
var winListener:Object = new Object();
winListener.click = function() {
miAlerta();
ventanaa.addEventListener("click", winListener);
THANKS!!

Notably, that you have a inner class referencing
image variables defined in the class it's nested in.Inner classes can access all members of the declaring class,
even private members. In fact, the inner class itself is said to be
a member of the class; therefore, following the rules of
object-oriented engineering, it should have access to all
members of the class.
The inner class does nothing to set it's own size,
, since as far as that JLabel instance knows, it
contains nothing.
But this is not corrected, it's
only relying on the BorderLayout to fill the frame
with the label.
While your sample works fine as is, it's not very
portable. As the OP posted after, he attempted to
use your code adding a JPanel in between the content
pane and the label, and it wouldn't work because of
the layout issues. To solve that, one might tend
towards defining a null layout and setting the bounds
explicitly, or one might add a setMinimumSize or
setPreferredSize call to get a size.
But that's adding more code to fix a problem that has
a much simpler solution. Which is to just give the
label the image directly, let the label size itself
automatically based on that image, let the label draw
the image itself and only override paint to get the
custom drawing done on top.
Myself, I understand what you were saying in your
code. But clearly the OP did not, and I suspect was
heading to starting patching what wasn't working by
applying more code when one could more cleanly use
less code and take advantage of what JLabel will
already do for you.Agreed. But this problem can also be easily solved with "setPreferredSize(new Dimension(200,200));" in the constructor of "Picture".
