I have created my own CanvasStack (to replace the viewstack) because viewstacks and models do not mix.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Canvas xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; creationComplete="initApp()" height="100%" horizontalScrollPolicy="off" verticalScrollPolicy="off" > <mx:Metadata> [Event(name="changeSelectedIndex",type="flash.events.Event")] </mx:Metadata> <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ import com.gladhandle.AppGlobals; import com.gladhandle.handles.greeting_card.gcassets.Editor; [Bindable] private var _selectedIndex:int; public var dataProvider:Array; private function initApp():void { _selectedIndex = 0; addChild( dataProvider[_selectedIndex] ); } public function set selectedIndex( selectedIndex:int ):void { if( selectedIndex < 0 || selectedIndex > dataProvider.length ) { throw new Error( "selectedIndex out of range" ); return; } _selectedIndex = selectedIndex; dispatchEvent( new Event( "changeSelectedIndex", false ) ); this.removeAllChildren(); this.addChild( dataProvider[_selectedIndex] ); } [Bindable] public function get selectedIndex():int { return _selectedIndex; } ]]> </mx:Script> </mx:Canvas> --------------------------------------- This dataprovider is populated with custom components as well. When I change the selected index, it removes all the children (but they still exist in the dataprovider, so 'session' data should be saved), but when I navigate back to an index I have already visited, everything is still there, EXCEPT for the format of the text, it for some reason, is reset back to the original text, even though I have setTextFormat() and set the defaultTextFormat on the TextField. Any ideas?
