Calling commitProperties directly will work but after that if this component gets added then it is not showing display list properly. Instead of creating news rows and align them properly it keeps on putting everything on first row itself. Best Regards Pawan On Thu, Mar 12, 2015 at 9:45 AM, Jake

Hi Jeffry, *Why wouldn't you just call commitProperties() directly?* commitProperties() is a protected method. The OP stated that he is working with *some UIComponent *and that he changed public properties such as *includeInLayout= false *and *selectedItem**. *I took this to mean he is asking ho

*If it isn't on the stage; then invalidateProperties will have no affect; because the SystemManager (is that the right class?) is not aware of it; and will push the component through its validation process.* I didn't realize that the component hadn't been added to the displayList. Serves me right
