Hi Tracy,

I tried to remove as much code as possible. Thanks

public function initApp():void
                        { 
                                
                                //Event Listener
currentStickyNote.addEventListener("taskUpdate",currentStickyViewHandler);
                                
                        }


private function currentStickyViewHandler(event:UpdateScrumTaskEvent):void
                        {
                                currentStickyNote.category = event.category;
                        }
