Well, this goes into the category of 'Where does Flex create the project files?' quirks:

Quick answer: The debugger was pointing to a location where Flex essentially wasn't building the latest compiles.

Long answer: If you ever run into really strange issues where you are convinced that it should be working, but ti doesn't, check that the build path and the output folder URL point to the same location.

Explanation:
I'm running Flex on a Mac, but am working on a .NET based server end solution, so I have to essentially build the Flex app against the IIS server location on a network Win2003 drive.

Problem with the Mac is that it doesn't play well with the Windows network (at least so far), so it always looses the shared drives when I put it to sleep. Waking it up and reconnecting the networked shares messes up Flex when the shared name all of a sudden changes (because the Mac assigns a different name to it dynamically).

So, all this to say that creationPolicy works as expected and this is something external to Flex, but still the source of some frustration if you don't pay attention to it.

Hope this helps someone else! :-)

I'm running into a strange problem with the Accordion container. Setting
creationPolicy to 'all' on the Accordion container will not force the
controls in all the views to be created. It behaves as if it is still
set to the default (auto).

Anyone run into the same problem?
