If you don't do addChild() it won't actually be on the stage - even if
you add it to an array or a variable inside of the clip.
Consider:
public class Tree blabla ()
{
private var apple:Apple;//where 'Apple' is some item you want to
attach
to this class
public function Tree ()
{
apple = new Apple();
addChild(apple);
}
}
If I don't do an 'addChild' the Apple class will simply be assigned to
the variable apple but it will NOT be opn the stage until I add it via
addChild();
Make sense?
Google it otherwise, it's a basic AS3 concept that differs from AS2.

Hi,
If I create my AppScreens dynamically and add them - the added to
stage event handler for the AppScreen sub-class is called.
I am not calling addChild() for the components in the AppScreen
sub-class because they are placed at authortime inside the clip - I
should not have to call addChild for these surely?

forget to addChild()?
The problem I have run into is that when I instanciate an
AppScreen symbol from my library - it's not on stage - and add it to
the stage I handle the ADDED_TO_STAGE event for wiring the components
up.
