Maybe it is just time to bite the bullet and not support apply as both
a method and an attribute in state any more?
I think you can work around this by changing:
if (! (a in this))
to:
if (! this[a])
[Remember that `in` does not see "class fixtures", which the apply
method is.]
But, we really ought to make an API change. I would propose that the
state 'state variable' be named `applied`, not `apply`. That would be
consistent with the visibility/visible change we made for view.

I think this may be due to this line in the slider.lzx component
<state apply="${this.classroot.showrange}">
<text y="${classroot.track.y + classroot.track.height + 2}"
text="${classroot.minvalue}" fgcolor="$
{classroot.style ?
classroot.style.textcolor : this.fgcolor}"
/>
<text y="${this.classroot.track.y +
this.classroot.track.height
+ 2}" resize="true"
x="${classroot.track.x+classroot.track.width-width}"
text="${classroot.maxvalue}" fgcolor="$
{classroot.style ?
classroot.style.textcolor : this.fgcolor}"
/>
</state>
The code in applyArgs is this line I think
// NOTE: [2007-05-16 ptw] This check ensures that each
// constrained attribute exists in the new instance.
// Necessary because of 'implicit this', which will make a

// function. YOW!
if (! (a in this)) {this[a] = null;}
Is this something we can avoid in swf9?
