I'm not actually referencing the view with the 'modelLocator.view.fields' statement. That's kind of confusing but the code is for a View Builder application so the view in that context refers to a View model class. Listening to COLLECTION_CHANGE events works fine and from reading other posts, I'm guessing is more performant? I knew there were binding issues with updates to an item within a ArrayCollection but I thought adding items worked as advertised. Anyhow, thanks for your help.
