It may be a window in the operating system * or an area within the browser. That is an "application window" * and different from an instance of mx.core.Application, which * is the main "top-level" window within an application. * *

Every application has an ISystemManager. * The ISystemManager sends an event if * the size of the application window changes (you cannot change it from * within the application, but only through interaction with the operating * system window or browser). It parents all displayable items within the * application, such as the main mx.core.Application instance and all popups, * tooltips, cursors, an so on. Any object parented by the ISystemManager is * considered to be a "top-level" window, even tooltips and cursors.

* *

The ISystemManager also switches focus between top-level windows * if there are more than one IFocusManagerContainer displayed and users * are interacting with components within the IFocusManagerContainers.

* *

All keyboard and mouse activity that is not expressly trapped is seen * by the ISystemManager, making it a good place to monitor activity * should you need to do so.

* *

If an application is loaded into another application, an ISystemManager * will still be created, but will not manage an "application window", * depending on security and domain rules. * Instead, it will be the content of the Loader * that loaded it and simply serve as the parent of the sub-application

* *

The ISystemManager maintains multiple lists of children, one each for * tooltips, cursors, popup windows. * This is how it ensures that popup windows "float" above the main * application windows and that tooltips "float" above that * and cursors above that. * If you examine the numChildren property * or getChildAt() method on the ISystemManager * you are accessing the main application window and any other windows * that aren't popped up. * To get the list of all windows, including popups, tooltips and cursors, * use the rawChildren property.
