If you are using dispatchEvent(new Event("change",true)) the second
argument tells the event to "bubble" and you should be able to listen
for it anywhere in the displayList, including the List, and Application.However, it sounds suspiciously like you are not having your checkbox renderer update the dataProvider. This is required. You cannot "walk any array of elements inside the list" You must look at the dataProvider only. The visual elements, including the checkboxes cease to exist when they are scrolled.

Basically I'm overriding a multi-select List to have a checkbox in it with a simple itemRenderer. The item renderer is handling the clicks and managing the checkbox just fine. It also dispatches an event when clicked. But when it comes time to listen to that event I don't know who to ask to listen to it. The component which included the List doesn't seem to care, and the List item itself surely doesn't seem to be attachable... Another workaround was to capture all clicks on the LIST itself, then walk the itemRendered elements, asking each one if it was checked or not. That one baffles me. I cannot seem to walk any array of data elements inside the list. I can see the dataProvider array in the debugger, but I need the "itemRenderer" list so I have reference to the checkbox element. This seemed so simple at first. Now I'm just flailing around.
