yea this solution works on a very simple level but if u try to apply it to any panel/ title window that moves the tool-tips are not attached to them. Also, try to re-size the browser window unless u somehow attach listeners to redisplay the tool-tips it’s buggy. Also, it becomes a real pain when u pop up a title window on top of the tool-tips w/o hiding or removing them since they are displayed on top of the entire application… in other words I was attempting to use this on a large scale program, but it was just to painful to hide the tool-tips every time I wanted to display a pop-up and the redisplay them when the pop up disappears… I ended up just going with flex’s native validation and created custom validators that extend StringValidator way simpler since they deal with the pop-up order problem by only displaying tool-tips on mouse over WHICH IS WHEN THEY WERE MEANT TO BE DISPLAYED!!!

in other words, there is no simple way to make the REGULAR error message visible when the user rolls out of an input?

“Needless to say, having the user switch input devices and exert additional effort in order to see a form validation error does not make for good ergonomics or usability.”

Agreed. But when you go through all this work and then resize your browser and find that your tool tips are locked to their initial position as your application moves relative to the stage, you start to see why they made the tooltips not be persistently visible.

Or, next you listen to resize on all your targets and the application and reset the toolTip position. So, this suddenly is not so simple.

Nice stuff.

I’m getting the errorTip even though I’ve typed some text in my textinput (while my focus out of the TextInput).

Please help me to resolve this.
