Use getDisplayObjectsUnderPoint() or break on SystemManager.mouseDownHandler and see what the target is.

The horizontal bars are blocking the mouse down event from reaching a component in a lower depth. I'm confused because I've set the parent, the children, and everything near there's mouseChildren and mouseEnabled to false, yet the contents of the rows, little squares, block the mouse down event. Doing tests in Flash, I've proven those are the only 2 properties you need to set to false, even with nested containers, and cacheAsBitmap set to true. I have no events on this children; they are just a bunch of Shapes inside a Sprite, with his mouseChildren and mouseEnabled set to false as well. So, I'm confused. I know UIComponent sets your doubleClickEnabled to true, but tracing my components out, they seem to all say false for those values. What could possibly be causing those Shapes in a Sprite to be blocking the mouse down events?
