Thanks for the response Barry. I was away & just now
catching up on email.
Turns out I did not have to do:
var treeListData:TreeListData =
TreeListData(super.listData);
if(treeListData.isDirty){
this.label.setStyle('fontStyle', 'italic');
}
but just:
var treeListData:TreeListData =
TreeListData(super.listData);
if(treeListData.isDirty){
setStyle('fontStyle', 'italic');
}
I had one of those doh moments when I noticed it.
Regards,
Ivo
