[flexcoders] Re: Navigating to a new child in a ViewStack - how to target the child being hidden?

You probably want the hide event (Dispatched when an object's state changes 
from visible to invisible).

 being hidden.  I see the change event triggered when I change views, but it 
 seems that the target reference passed in via the event parameter is the new 
 view.  Is there an easy way to get a reference to the view being hidden?  Or 
 is there a different event triggered (something like a deactivate) that I can 
 use to create a handler with a passed in reference to the departing view?
 
 Thanks.

If you still want to use the change event (or if for some reason the 
hide event doesn't seem to work), I think you could also look at the 
oldIndex value of the event. From there you could call 
getChildByIndex on the ViewStack to get a reference.
