You just need to be aware that renderers get recycled, so that if you set something to, say, blue, when data=1 and you do that, for instance, in creationComplete, then that renderer is already created when you scroll and data=2. If you don't react to the change in data, then it will stay blue. I think you've already looked at Alex's blog, and maybe the wording just wasn't what you needed to see. Here's another explanation that you might find useful: http://weblogs.macromedia.com/pent/archives/2008/03/itemrenderers_p.html And in case you _haven't_ found Alex's blog, here it is: http://blogs.adobe.com/aharui/item_renderers/ (the posts at the bottom are most relevant to your issue).
