Justin, Making the popup appear above the widgets is not possible as popups are just a child of the map and the map is always below the widgets for obvious reasons. You can however change the default placement of the popup to upperLeft instead of upperRight.Just add this to the default.css in the Flex Viewer:esri|InfoWindow { infoPlacement : upperLeft; }
