[flexcoders] Proper way to ensure components in a different state are created

When I try to access components that are in a different state on the line after I set the current state I get this error, TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. // code currentState = NOTES; noteComponent.text = value; // noteComponent exists in

If you use includeIn or excludeFrom, then itemCreationPolicy becomes available and you can set it to immediate - imageComponent includeIn=State 1 itemCreationPolicy=immediate id=imcomp / Then in code you could in imcomp.currentState = myDesiredState, even before State 1 has been used.

Re: [flexcoders] Proper way to ensure components in a different state are created

Arggh I forgot I have to set certain components visible, currentState = note; source = note.text; // databinding note.visible = true; border.visible = true; border.y = note.y; border.width = note.width; I think this is impossible in Flex 4. I'm think my only option is to set every component
