OK, stumbled upon a "fix" by pure chance. Is this a bug?
By importing UIMovieClip and creating an instance (in a completely
separate component, that isn't even instantiated at runtime at the
time this issue occurs) this issue resolves!
i.e. a click event on the itemRenderer will now also set the
selectedIndex on the TileList.
No idea why. Anyone?
Cheers, Rich
