Flex Access SwatchPanel from ColorPicker

Question

I would like to access the SwatchPanel that is spawned on a ColorPicker open event. I need to move and resize the SwatchPanel in certain situations.

It appears that the dropdown variable which contains a reference to the SwatchPanel from the Color Picker is private.

I am at a little loss as to how I would now find a reference that I can access through the open event.

Thanks, Dan
