Hey Ian, can you create a work example of the problem with hardcoded
values and zip that up and attach?
But in yer custom component it looks like you're just creating a blank
instance of dayData. Like if your Day.as class initializes itself to
some date, I would guess that would be displayed.
I think your issue is related to: {dayCells.currentItem as Day} vs
import Day
