[FLEX-28934] Modal windows aren't modal on Mobile devices

Did anybody experience the problem where modal windows aren't modal on 
mobile devices?

In other words you can click on buttons covered by the modal mask. 
(Mostly it requires two or three clicks)

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-28934


I tried to add modify the PopUpManagerImpl by adding more mouse event 
(MOUSE_UP, MOUSE_DOWN, CLICK, DOUBLE_CLICK) and touch event listeners 
(TOUCH_TAB, TOUCH_BEGIN) to it, to stop immediate event propagation and 
prevent default. The event listeners get called but components behind 
the modal mask can still be clicked.

Does anybody know a workaround?

Thanks in advance
Alexander

Thanks for your reply.

Yes I did try a darker less transparent modal box, but the box correctly 
covers the whole screen.
But anyway someone who had the issue last year just posted a workaround 
in the bug report, which works for me (Using a stage level mouse 
listener to prevent default and propagation).

He also mentioned that he no longer has this problem. So it's probably 
something with my app, would be interesting to know what could cause 
this, but will not spend time on it

Thanks,

Alexander

I have tested on a mobile app, trying to click outside of the modal dialog box (actually a modal Callout, but it the same)
And I didn't notice anything wrong (ie couldn't click outside)

I am compiling with SDK 4.10 and AIR 3.8.

There must be something wrong in your app.

Can you try to change     modalTransparencyColor  and    modalTransparency  to see if the modal mask covers all the screen ? 
Eg. 
global {
/* debug popup mask */
    modalTransparencyColor: red;
    modalTransparency: 0.3;
}
