Find a component in TaskFlow Region

Question

Hi All,
Jdev version : 11.1.1.6
I found lot of code to find a component,Using FacesContext, Events etc...
But in my case its not working.
Scenario:
Home.jspx
<f:view>
<af:document id="d1" title="Create Proposal">
<af:form id="f1">
<af:region value="#{bindings.taskflowdefinition1.regionModel}" id="r1" />
</af:form>
</af:document>
</f:view>
* taskFlowId="/WEB-INF/uw-createProposal-task-flow.xml#task-flow-definition"
Takflow Pages:
Page1.jsff
<af:pageTemplate viewId="/Template/CreateProposalTemplate.jspx" id="pt1" >
<f:facet name ="header">
</f:facet>
<f:facet name="body">
<af:commandButton >
<af:showPopupBehaviour popupid="parentPopup">
</af:commandButton>
<af:table id="tb1" >
</af:table>
<af:popup id="parentPopup">
<af:commandButton >
<af:showPopupBehaviour popupid="childPopup">
</af:commandButton>
</af:popup>
<af:popup id="childPopup">
<af:commandButton actionListener="{AddInsuranceListener.execute}" />
</af:popup>
</f:facet>
</af:pageTemplate>
AddInsuranceListener.java
execute()
RichRegion a_richRegion = (RichRegion) a_facesContext.getViewRoot().findComponent("*r1*");
RichPageTemplate a_richTemplate = (RichPageTemplate) a_richRegion.findComponent("*pt1*");
RichTable a_richTable = (RichTable) a_richTemplate.findComponent("*tb1*");
sop("table"+a_richTable) // output: RichTable id = tb1
I can able to find the Table (tb1) from the child popup action event. But i need region id,pageTemplate id.
Any other alternate way is there to avoid find region and pageTemplate.
UIComponet root = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance.getViewRoot();
root.findComponet("tb1"); // this is also not working
Am I following the correct path.Please suggest how to achieve it? also provide some documents to follow.
Kindly revert if any clarifications need.
Thanks

Hi,
the command button is in the page fragment, so you can perform a relative search. In your actionListener you receive the actionEvent object to start from
RichCommandButton button = (RichCommandButton) actionEvent.getUIComponent();
RichPopup popup = button.getParent();
RichTable table = (RichTable) popup.findComponent("tb1");
...You would only use absolute searches when the search is initiated from the parent page. Otherwise you search relative
