[flexcoders] Showroot - Tree control

[Rafael Faria]

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!-- dpcontrols/TreeSimple.mxml -->
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml";>
        <mx:Tree id="tree1" labelField="@label" showRoot="false" width="160">
      <mx:XMLListCollection id="MailBox">
         <mx:XMLList>
            <folder label="Mail">
               
            </folder>
         </mx:XMLList>
      </mx:XMLListCollection>
   </mx:Tree>
</mx:Application>

Whenever i have just 1 node (that is the root one) on the XML it
doesnt matter if i set the attribute showRoot="false" because it keep
showing.

I need to keep the root to not show on my tree.


if i do


<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!-- dpcontrols/TreeSimple.mxml -->
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml";>
   <mx:Tree id="tree1" labelField="@label" showRoot="false" width="160">
      <mx:XMLListCollection id="MailBox">
         <mx:XMLList>
            <folder label="Mail">
               <folder label="INBOX"/>
               <folder label="Personal Folder">
                  <Pfolder label="Business" />
                  <Pfolder label="Demo" /> 
                     <Pfolder label="Personal" isBranch="true" /> 
                     <Pfolder label="Saved Mail" /> 
                  </folder>
                  <folder label="Sent" />
                  <folder label="Trash" />
            </folder>
         </mx:XMLList>
      </mx:XMLListCollection>
   </mx:Tree>
</mx:Application>


The "Mail" one its not there...

i cant filter, or delete, or whatever... i just need it to work
exactly how it work on the second example, but whenever i dont have
the nodes after the root i just want to show a blank tree.

The reason i need to keep root is because i have a drag and drop the
needs to keep the root on it.

anyone can explain why in the first example even though i set
showroot="false" it still show it?!

thanks
