Hi Jason, What I would do,
- Listen for the enabledChanged event on all views in the navigator. - when you want to disable a view, use your selected index that you 'know' to get the selected child container. - once you have the container ref of the view, then set the enabled of this view, the event handler you made for all views of the navigator will fire. - in the event handler; // the event.currentTarget should actually be the view that is being enabled/disabled var button:Button = navigator.getTabAt(navigator.getChildIndex(DisplayObject(event.currentTarge))); button.enabled = true|false; You could also use bindings but I don't know how your app is set up. PS you could do all of this in one step as well when you disable/enable the view, just depends how decoupled you want these actions to be.
