Also it may be that your setter is not getting called again? Look into calling notifyItemUpdate on the dataProvider (or source collection) passing in the dataObject where you changed the value of plotted.

Your example can be reduced to the following: <mx:Text xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2005/mxml"; xmlns="*" color="{dataObject.plotted == 'TRUE' ? '#FF0000' : '#0000FF'}"> </mx:Text> See if that works.
