Description

When we add one window object to another parent window object, then child window object is not visible. *Steps to reproduce* 1: Use the below sample code and copy paste it in app.js 2: Run the project. 3: click on *open added window* button. 4: using 3.1.3 SDK, only parent window i.e. yellow colored window will be displayed. Note: Using 3.1.2.GA SDK both parent and child windows are displayed. i.e. yellow and red colored windows are displayed. *Sample code*

var win1 = Ti.UI.createWindow({
	backgroundColor : "gray"
});

var btn = Ti.UI.createButton({
	top:20,
	left:20,
	height:100,
	width:200,
	title : "open added window"
});

btn.addEventListener("click", function() {
	var win2 = Ti.UI.createWindow({
		backgroundColor : "yellow"
	});

	var win3 = Ti.UI.createWindow({
		top:100,
		left:100,
		height:180,
		width:200,
		backgroundColor : "red"
	});
	
	win2.add(win3);
	
	win2.open();
});

var btn1 = Ti.UI.createButton({
	top:220,
	left:20,
	height:100,
	width:200,
	title : "open new single window"
});

btn1.addEventListener("click", function() {
	var win2 = Ti.UI.createWindow({
		backgroundColor : "pink"
	});
	
	win2.open();
});


win1.add(btn);
win1.add(btn1);

win1.open();

This is a conscious change and part of ios windows refactor. Windows are not supposed to be children of other views. We have explicitly disabled this in 3.1.3 and above.
