well turns out i'm not explicitly setting the height/width- i did add this
to the script that loads the report
reportsTabNavigator.selectedChild.dispatchEvent(new
FlexEvent(FlexEvent.SHOW));
after the report loads and it fixed the issue (although now there is a
flicker on the screen). I should also mention that I have a chart on this
report and it is what is not showing on the first attempt. the header and
footer appear just fine.
thanks,
d.
