Hi, thanks for the reply... I can see similarities in the example to the code I'm looking at but my setter doesn't dispatch an event - does this mean the [Bindable("dataChange")] isn't needed?
Also, is [Bindable("dataChange")] specific to the data property or the IDataRender Class?... I mean is it a coincidence that the property is called "data" and the event is called "data"Change? Or does the IDataRenderer dictate that there must be this [Bindable("dataChange")] meta tag in order for the data getter and setter to function correctly. INterfaces are new to me as well :) Cheers, Nick 2009/9/3 valdhor <valdhorli...@embarqmail.com> > > > Check the documentation at > http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/langref/mx/core/IDataRenderer.html. > > --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com <flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com>, Nick > Middleweek <n...@...> wrote: > > > > i'm still new to Flex...
