Nope, adding the text children clears my canvas. I think I now know why. After I add all these children to my main Canvas I'm adding a transform matrix to it to flip it vertically, like so:

mainCanvas.transform.matrix = new Matrix(1,0,0,-1);

This works just fine so long as I don't add the text children, but if I do, the canvas ends up empty.

Is this something to do with Flex not being happy to vertically flip my text objects? If so, would that be a bug?

Thanks for your help.
