Well personally, when writing components (which is kind of what your stating you've done), i keep the "views" selfcontained.
An Example was a CustomCalendar Ingredients: 1xCombobox = month 1xNumericStepper = year 1xCalendar = day Now my other views rely on the fact that these three controls trigger a date change (depending on what you manipulate). So do i write viewHelpers for every single container within my heirachy? not really (not in my view heheh) even though they feel like a view, in reality they are probably considered a "component" and as such, encapsulation rules apply? So what I do is inside my CustomCalendar.mxml i put the logic in there, and keep one public variable up-to-date ... "selectedDate:Date", then I dispatch an "onChange" event. In doing this my actual view can listen for a change, and then carry out further instructions via its ViewHelper (ie update model, or trigger an event broadcast).
