The only real solution for this (as I'm sure you've discovered) is to try and separate the work up into chunks, allowing the UI to be updated in between these chunks.
Until we get multiple threading, you have to limit the amount of work you are doing at any one time if you want the UI to keep up. Gk.

I am working in Adobe Flex & AIR from last six months only. I have a problem that anyone will have been faced in flex/air of updaing UI during the intense AS work before.

I am able to read each and every node but thing is that UI is not updating during scanning; the same problem like i read in this post (http://www.mail- archive.com/[email protected] <mailto:archive.com%2Fflexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> /msg06477.html) and also approach for solution, but i am unable to implement it.
