This is definitely a pointer in the right direction. I found that my item 
renderer was not redrawing things under certain conditions. Fixing that fixed 
the problem.

Many thanks to all who took the time to help me out!

Farid, 
Why not use OpenOffice on the backend and do the transcoding there?

For now I am shelving TileList in favour of a custom component to do the job. 
I'll put together an isolated test case and see what is going on. If I find 
something I open a bug.

Thanks for your time and attention, folks.

Jake,
Thanks for your response, but this did not help. I am still seeing the exact 
same behaviour. It is as if changing the data provider somehow does not really 
clean things out in the tile list.

[flexcoders] TileList dataprovider change bug?

2009-05-05 Thread Ritu Raj Tiwari
I am seeing some strange behaviour with TileList. I am hoping someone can shed 
some light on this:
I have a TileList where I assign it an ArrayCollection for its dataProvider. As 
I add objects to this collection, the tile list updates faithfully.

The problem happens when I switch the dataProvider to a new one. I start with 
an empty array collection and sure enough, the tile list is empty. When I add 
the first item to the new dataProvider, I see the last item from the previous 
dataProvider as the first entry in the list. As I add more items, I see more 
items from the previous data provider.

Has someone else encountered this? It is definitely a bug, I am wondering if 
there is an easy workaround, like, say, creating my own TileList subclass that 
clears the right thing?

Thanks in advance for any insights.
