I have posted this in another form on SO (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/42565640/how-to-distinguish-between-structural-changes-to-array-made-in-parent-element-vs) and in the 2.0-preview branch slack channel, but I know they are heads down with the upcoming release, so hopefully somewhere in the broader group here will have insight to share.
The TL;DR question: how many times should the observer, defined in editor-element.html log to console for the following sample code: https://plnkr.co/edit/iTZqM4GwpASEqQgtRGEk? I would have expected 4, but it actually happens 6 times. More details: the elements are a list element which, using dom-repeat, renders a list of todos, and each todo is rendered by an instance of an editor element. The data is a list of todo objects, each of which has a primitive property called description. First, two todo objects are pushed onto the list. Then the first todo object's description property is edited. Then a third todo object is unshifted (not pushed) onto the list. The data binding is defined two way between the items inside the dom-repeat of the list element and the todo property of the editor element. In other words, the binding is made at the object, not the property. The editor element defines an observer on "todo.description", printing a message to the console each time an observation is made. thanks in advance for any help Follow Polymer on Google+: plus.google.com/107187849809354688692 --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Polymer" group.
