Cool, thanks for the tips Josh!

In there. You probably won't gain *much* performance but it's only one
line, and it might help a lot depending on various bindings :)
Also, and I'm not 100% sure on this but depending on what you're
actually doing with _title, it might be more in line with the standard
flex way of doing things to just call invalidateProperties, and then
in commitProperties() check for a change in _title (compare it with
titleComponent.text or whatever) and simply change the property on
that component instead of calling the entire updateDisplatList()
method. But I've only seen 5 lines of your component, so that may be
way off for your use case! :D

Thanks for the reply Richard. The problem I'm facing is that not *all*
of the bindings are getting honored when I change localeChain. I
realize the recursive display invalidation is not the way to go.
Your email made me realize now that the it's my custom component
MyPanel (which extends Box and adds a bold label on top) that isn't
updating until updateDisplayList() is called. This was a deficiency in
how this component was written as Flex Text and Label controls update
fine. I wasn't accounting for these custom properties to be
programatically set since they were just hardcoded before i18n.
I changed
public var title:String;
to
protected var _title:String;
public function get title():String
{
return _title;
}
public function set title(value:String):void
{
_title = value;
invalidateDisplayList();
}
and all is well. Thanks a lot!
