Scaleing and Center popups

Hi
   I use this code to centre my popups 
   var _class3:ReportsDialogDictation = new ReportsDialogDictation();
   PopUpManager.addPopUp(_class3, this.parentApplication as DisplayObject, true);
   PopUpManager.centerPopUp(_class3);
}


this works fine


when i let the user scale the application 

var visibleWidth:Number = systemManager.getVisibleApplicationRect().width;
var visibleHeight:Number = systemManager.getVisibleApplicationRect().height;
var smallestScale:Number = Math.min(visibleHeight / 768, visibleWidth / 1024);
appHolder.scaleX = smallestScale;
appHolder.scaleY = smallestScale;


I still end up with centre popups, but these are popups are small

when i scale the popup it self with this code in the creationComplete

 


private function init():void {
   var visibleWidth:Number = systemManager.getVisibleApplicationRect().width;
   var visibleHeight:Number = systemManager.getVisibleApplicationRect().height;
   var smallestScale:Number = Math.min(visibleHeight / 768, visibleWidth / 1024);
   this.scaleX = smallestScale;
   this.scaleY = smallestScale;

}

I end up with the popup not centred 

any ideas ?

 popupMem = PopUpManager.createPopUp(FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication as DisplayObject, MemoryTestResults, true) as MemoryTestResults;
 PopUpManager.centerPopUp(popupMem as IFlexDisplayObject);

On a side note, have you experienced that null parenting issues in the popup while using the parentApplication object as a DisplayObject?  I've experienced things like custom itemRenderers in datagrids in popups giving me null parent checks on groups.

What is appHolder?  Maybe scale the SystemManager instead.
