Nope, it is essentially an array. If I have var a:Array = [ "Nate", "Alex"]; a[2] = "Bjorn"; a.shift(); a[2] is no longer "Bjorn", you are now at a[1].

It will either removeChildAt(0) j times or iterate backwards. ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Nate Pearson Sent: Tuesday, March 27, 2007 5:22 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [flexcoders] Scaling Custom Components I have a custom component that adds multiple shapes during UpdateDisplayList. When I scale the browser it calls update display list and draws over all of my shapes. I have tried: j = this.numChildren; for (i=0; i<j; i++){ this.removeChildAt(i); } Before I write redraw my shapes in UpdateDisplayList. I always get an outofbounds error after i exceed numAutomationChildren(?). If i try the same loop with numAutomationChildren nothing disappears. It won't let me call this.removeAllChildren (i think because I'm extending an UIComponent and not a Container)! Isnt there a way for me to get all those shapes outta there? Maybe I'm taking the wrong approach. Thanks in advance, Nate
