I don't use states much, but aren't there derived states so it will only
unplay to a certain point?

Yeah, I didn't understand states.  Changing from one state to another
always unplays the properties and styles set in the previous state.  Not
a fan of that at all but that explains all my confusion.

I thought I had states down pat until the last few days.

**States:**
normal state:
- change viewstack to show data renderers
no data state:
- change viewstack to show "no data" error view
fetching data state:
- <empty>

**Transitions:**
to fetching data state:
- display fetching data view
from fetching data state:
- hide fetching data view

My problem is that whenever I went into the fetchingData state, it
would properly perform the transitions for that state (showing the
fetching data view), but would also incorrectly perform whatever code
was inside the no data state. It also performed the code in the
fetching data state.

I created a function to watch the state changes and the no data state
was never being entered, but its properties were definitely being
applied.

I now have it working by doing everything in transitions, but does
anyone know why this problem would happen? I tried to write a small
sample app to demo this problem, but of course it worked fine.

Thanks
