Binding does not work well when you reach up to a parent component. You
will have better luck passing a reference into the sub-component.
In the main app("Myapp"):
<MyComponent id="mc1" app="{this}" .../>
And in MyComponent:
public var app:MyApp; //data typing is required!
then:
text="{app.someComponent.someProperty}"
