BUG: Popup in page fragment; with many regions and popup binded to backing.

Question

BUG: Popup in page fragment; with many regions and popup or parent binded to backing bean.
JDEV11.1.2.1 Popup will not popup.(sometimes works if using RichPopup.Show() in backing bean Java code.)
I have a bug (Popup will not popup)that only happens when I have more than one of the same region.
And I have a popup in the page fragment is binded to backing bean.
My SR guy is out today but we plan to enter one.

Thanks that fixed the problem.
"a user error"
Well I followed your book! Chapter 6 of the "Oracle Fusion Developer Guide - Working with Bounded Task Flows in ADF Regions". I think this comes back to book writer error. I found almost no mention of BackingBeanScope in this chapter. Don't you think this would be an important note?
"did you know that there is a Java API (on the RichPopup instance) to launch a popup ?"
Yes I posted in my code! If you read the above code you would see it there.
I don't really understand why the scope of the bean has anything to do with af:showPopupBehavior or AdfPage.PAGE.findComponent.
