I guess the problem is that I am not using the viewStack as the
dataProvider. I am just using an arrayCollection. Ideally I would like
to leave it this way and not actually have to connect my linkBar to my
viewStack. What I want is to press a button which calls a function and
changes the underlying state, which may then change the selected item
by changing the selectedIndex.

Is this possible?
