it seems to be a small problem that is complicated to solve so it's in
low priority now. post the code if u manage to implement it.

Hi people,
i hope u can help me on this one...
i have a ModelLocator that holds an object with ArrayCollection.
i also have a TileList that gets the ArrayCollection of that object
through DataBinding. Now, when i change the Object in the ModelLocator
none of the custom itemRenderer in the TileList do not change. they
still show the old data.
any idea?
some code:
---StoreVO.as
[Bindable]
public class StoreVO implements IValueObject{
[ArrayElementType(Product)]
public var products:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection();
}
--ModelLocator.as---
[Bindable]
public class ModelLocator implements ModelLocator{
public var store:StoreVO;
}
--Main.mxml-
mx:TileList
dataProvider={ModelLocator.getInstance().store.products}
itemRenderer=ProductView
/
-ProductView.mxml
...
mx:Label text={data.name} / //i get warning - Data binding will
not be able to detect assignments to data
