Bruce,
Can you post an example? I'm skeptical - since the show event is tied to object visibility. and if you aren't touching that explicitly it won't be implicitly set by a parent. You must be setting the stage for your events to propagate (something touching visibile=true) which would be hard to do with a pre-packaged component.

All you need to do is add a listener for the FlexEvent.SHOW event. Your callback method will always be called when the ViewStack shows your child container.

I have a component and I need to to 'know' if it's actually in the showing viewstack child or in one of the hidden ones. I cannot look at the parent ViewStack because I will not know where or how this component is being used. I looked through piles of documentation, not sure if I am just thick or something. Any suggestions would rock the casbah, thanks in advance.
