When I ran your app, I used Moxie and it worked fine.  In 2.x, it does
not and the reason has to do with those pesky 'can't bind..." warnings
 
In 2.x, the data property of the renderer is not reassigned as since the
label is looking for the .data subproperty but it isn't bindable, it
can't see that either.
 
In Moxie, it looks like we're slightly more tolerant.

Yeah I was trying to keep it simple and show a non-binding example, but
maybe I oversimplified.  Typically we end up setting multiple properties
at once and get a flurry of events when only one is needed with bindable
properties. 

but I tried the itemUpdated method and it isn't working for me. I tried
both

var obj:Object = dataCollection.getItemAt(indices[i]);
obj.data = val.text;
dataCollection.itemUpdated(obj);


and


var obj:Object = dataCollection.getItemAt(indices[i]);
obj.data = val.text;
dataCollection.itemUpdated(dataCollection.getItemAt(indices[i]));


What am I doing wrong?


But looking at the docs did clue me in on the disableAutoUpdate() and
enableAutoUpdate() methods which I'll try for our objects with bindable
properties.

thanks

p.s. In case you don't hear it enough, thanks for the time you devote to
this list - I am sure it goes well beyond the call of duty as an adobe
employee.
