[SOLVED] MVC popup window from controller

[barnettc2]

I have a window class

Ext.define('PurchaseOrder.view.AddPOWindow', {
	extend: 'Ext.window.Window',
	alias: 'widget.purchaseorderaddpowindow',
        ...

In my controller, from everything I've read, this should display my component:

fnNewPo: function() {
		//Open the add window
		var newAddWindow = Ext.widget('purchaseorderaddpowindow');
		//newAddWindow.show();
	},

It does nothing. if I un-comment the show(), it gives an error "cannot call method substring of undefined"

Is your controller loading your window class via the requires config?

Ext.define('PurchaseOrder.controller.MyController',{
    extend : 'Ext.app.Controler',
    requires : [
        'PurchaseOrder.view.AddPOWindow'
    ],
    ...
});

In controller:

requires: ['PurchaseOrder.view.poGrid', 'PurchaseOrder.view.Viewport', 'PurchaseOrder.view.AddPOWindow'],

In your index file, include file ext-all-dev.js rather than ext-all.js or ext-all-debug.js. Then try it again with your console up.

Ok, thanks for that. I found the issue. I had a layout of 'form' on the window. worked in my ext 3 app. Looking in the API, form is not an option for layout any longer.
