successfully use createChild() at all?
Could the problem be the reference chain?
Can you do it in a sample app?

Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Looping output
opps didnt fully explain my last post.
I removed the for loop in my function, and tried testing with this. I
am trying to create the label on the subCanvas, which is where all my
display happens. And I still get nothing.
var newLabel =
parentApplication.closing.mainPanel.subCanvas.createChildren(mx.controls
\
.Label, undefined );
newLabel.text = 'test';
newLabel.x = 10;
newLabel.y = 300;
