MX PopUpManager

[Bilbosax <wa...@comcast.net>]

OK.  So the mobile app that I am trying to convert to Royale relies heavily
on PopUps.  I know that Royale has a new PopUp component, but if at all
possible, I want to keep my codebase somewhat intact, so I would prefer to
use the mx PopUpManager.  But for some reason, PopUpManager is not even
being seen in VS Code as an acceptable class.  I am getting the error:

"Definition mx.managers.PopUpManager could not be found."

Am I using the wrong namespace for mx components perhaps?

I found your discussion here https://github.com/apache/royale-asjs/issues/495 

that talks about having to change your configuration file to be able to use
mx components in a Royale app since 0.9.6 was released.  So now my test app
can see the classes and I thought everything would work.  I made a couple of
small changes to my code above that were typos, but now I am getting an
error on this line

PopUpManager.centerPopUp(cityStatePopUp);

 that says says 

"Implicit coercion of a value of type CityStatePopUp to an unrelated type
mx.core.IFlexDisplayObject"

I have run this line of code a million times in AIR, so I don't understand
why I am getting this error in Royale.  Can anybody give me a suggestion?
