Images are not mouse targets. Try setting mouseChildren=true and/or mouseEnabled=true in the renderer. You may also need to cover the image with a Sprite with alpha=0

I have a TileList control with a custom itemRenderer. The renderer consists of an Image control and a few Label controls. I've also attached a custom context menu to the TileList. In the MENU_SELECT event, I want to set the TileList's selectedItem to the item that the mouse is over before popping up the context menu. So I examine the event.mouseTarget property... this might be one of the embedded Label controls, so I crawl up the parent property till I get to the top. Works great - I eventually get to the itemRenderer level, where I can check if the renderer.data value is already selected, and if not, select it. It *doesn't* work if I right-click on the Image control. In that case, mouseTarget comes back as a MovieClip object with its parent property set to null - there doesn't seem to be any way to determine which itemRenderer it belongs to! Any ideas? All help appreciated, as always!!! --Tracey
