I've got the following GUI component that updates a value inside an
mx:Model I've defined:

<mx:ComboBox x="625" y="0" id="cbStartTime"  rowCount="10"
dataProvider="{hours.hour}"
change="timeRange.STARTTIME=cbStartTime.selectedItem.data"/>

I'm in the process of adding a <mx:Repeater> construct around one of
my GUI panels that contains about 4 ComboBoxes (including the one
above) and a 20-column DataGrid. I'm not able to drill-down as
before (cbStartTime.selectedItem.data has no meaning when using a
Repeater apparently. Likewise, my relative positioning of GUI
components (where the x of the current is based on the right edge of
the previous component) won't work for similiar reasons).

I need the GUI "replicated" n number of times for n different views
based on a selection from a check box elsewhere in the GUI, so I
think using a Repeater is the way to go, but how do I access
specific values (like x, selectedIndex, etc..) of the "current"
component being repeated?

I wrapped my GUI component (a panel with many sub-components) as
follows:

<mx:TabNavigator width="100%" height="100%" >
<mx:Repeater id="rp" dataProvider="{mockStations}">
<mx:Canvas width="100%" height="100%" label="{rp.currentItem}"  
id="sta1">

where mockStations is just a 3-length array of Strings. I didn't
have any luck with a similiar construct where I could drill-down
using rp.currentItem to get access to the values I need.

Also, I get a compile-time error about implicit coercion between
data types when I use my old DataGridColumn stuff along with a
Repeater as well.
