A creationComplete event is dispatched very late -- after the component has already been laid out. If you set its selectedIndex early (which is what doing it in MXML does), it should work.

I have tried myViewStack.selectedIndex = 1 or even myViewStack.selectedChild = secondCanvas, but what happens is that the firstCanvas displays first, then it just goes to secondCanvas. I would like to skip the displaying of the firstCanvas Thanks in advance! :D
