Hi Wayne,
I want to reproduce the scenario that you are facing. Could you send me the code that you are using? You could zip the whole thing and send it to this address, I'll try and work out a solution for you.
Thanks,

Hi Sam,
I tried a few events and complete was the only one that would work.
Unfortunately, the data (path to the images) is being fed via an XML
file which is constantly being updated, so there is no way for me to
embed the images.
I'm trying to build a custom template batch printing solution in
Flex. On one page, I need to be able to print the image, some text
field metadata pertaining to the image, and a tree control that
shows some descriptive hierarchy (an assembly tree for you CAD guys
out there) for the image. But I need this to happen for a
potentially large number of objects stored in a ArrayCollection.
I'm wondering if I could send the data to a canvas view and then add
that canvas to a viewstack, create a new view in the viewstack, and
then repeat for all the data in my ArrayCollection. Once I have a
viewstack with X views, send that viewstack to a print function to
loop through the indexes and print. What would that do to
performance if I had a viewstack of 500-1000 views?
