Re: [flexcoders] Re: setting conditional "enabled" with AS

Thank you both, this offered further insight into this problem.  I
like the watch idea because it keeps it simple and literally watches
the variable(s).  But I do see its limitations.

>>The problem is you can only get change events in certain situations.  IfI have a variable x and I want to know when it changes, I can't sayx.addEventListener("modelChanged") because it doesn't exist in any data
provider.  Not all changes to variables generate change events, which iswhy we use watch.  Watch is the way to catch changes to any variable.Yes, you can only have 1 watch per variable, but you can work around
that by having 1 "master" watch that triggers other listeners...-dYahoo! Groups Links<*> To visit your group on the web, go to:
