Thanks, Tracy.
What I meant was that I was adding Objects like { object:myObject } to
ArrayCollection -
where myObject was an instance of a proxy class - and whose properties were
getting
changed.
I have now gone to a slightly different scheme, adding Objects like {
object:mpObject,
value:myObject.value } - and when 'value' property changes, I iterate through
ArrayCollection, looking for match on 'object' - and, when I find that, I set
'value' to new
myObject.value. This seems to trigger necessary dispatch and Tree's rendering
updates.
Thanks again for your help.
