In fact, you can manually add extra (invisible) data to each row. It  
makes for an excellent container UI. No need to store the extra  
information in external parallel arrays or objects.

I knew the DataGrid worked that way, I'm just happy the List  
component seems to do the same. Fingers crossed it stays that way!

Subject: [Flashcoders] List Components, matrix data, and object
properties


I create a playlist which is an array of tracks. Each track has a
title, an id, an artist, and a URL. Magically, when I set my List
Component's dataProvider to playlist, it shows all the titles. But
the real miracle is that when I click on a title all the track
properties corresponding to that title are available.

Does this means the List component holds 2D data (I thought is was a
list only)? And is it safe to assume this is not anomalous behavior,
but something I can count on for the future (because this *really*
makes life much easier)?
