This used to work, because SDK-13537 fixed a previous issue where the wrong window was getting blurred. This does not reproduce with WindowedApplication, only mx:Window.

This broke somewhere between 147 and 154. It looks like 154 is most likely the cause.

I've noticed we've also lost all tooltips and anything attached into window.systemmanager.cursorchildren layer.

Sorry, meant to say we've lost all tooltips in mx:Windows

We also noticed that tooltips do not display in mx:Windows. However, they do seem to show up as soon as you click on a ComboBox. I'm not sure if this is only for mx:Windows or if it applies to mx:Applications as well; most of our application functionality is contained in separate mx:Window instances, which is where we notice most issues.

reproduced issue in build 422. Ryan is already taking a look at this.

This bug also manifests in Menus that are in a <mx:Window>

Lauren Park - [02/05/08 10:01 PM ]
Fixed in 429

Tooltips are now appearing in from of mx:Window as is the Alert window.
