How to replace the modalWindow with a popover? about capstone HOT 7 CLOSED

if you put that code from the "Simple Popover with a Title and Right Button" example into the current modalClickHandler(e) in index.js you should be able to modify that to do what you want I believe.

I've been playing with it for about an hour. I got it to show the popOver, but I haven't been able to get it to work without errors. Doesn't seem to be very many good examples of using it in Titanium.

Would we be better of using the modalWindow and modifying it to do what we need?

Right now the functionality of the screen is probably more important than its presentation. It would be best to get modalWindow working as intended and come back to popover later.

Blair suggested replacing the modalClickHandler call with:

var wind = Ti.UI.createWindow();
popover = Ti.UI.iPad.createPopover({height:100,width:300});
popover.add(wind);
popover.show({view:e.source});

..which works, but still produces a warning about use without contentView property set being deprecated.

I updated my post you can remove the first line I don't believe you need to create a new window.
Here is it updated. Yes I get the same warning.

var view = Ti.UI.createView({backgroundColor: 'green'});
view.add(Ti.UI.createLabel({text: "It's not easy being green."}));
popover = Ti.UI.iPad.createPopover({title:e.rowData.title, height:100,width:500});
popover.add(view);
popover.show({view:e.source});

Specifying a contentView as below gets rid of the warning, but the title bar disappears.

popover = Ti.UI.iPad.createPopover({title:e.rowData.title, height:100,width:500});
var view = Ti.UI.createView({backgroundColor:'green',height:popover.height,width: popover.width});
view.add(Ti.UI.createLabel({text: "It's not easy being green."}));
popover.add(view);
popover.contentView = view;
popover.show({view:e.source});

Leaving the issue open today, but I'm shifting focus to building modalWindow.

Not resolved, may come back to it later.
