So I found the problem. I have been working on this project so long, I had
forgotten that I created a custom List based on a suggestion I found on the
internet. With the List, for some reason, there is a single-frame white
flash that happens the first time that you touch it. It is all over the
forums. A guy created a solution by dispatching a fake touch event to hide
this scenario. When I switched over back to the regular list, my button
problem totally disappeared. So yes, it turns out I am an idiot.
So now I am left trying to figure out how to hide this single frame flash on
first touch LOL. Here is the code that he gave for the custom list:
package classes
{
import mx.events.FlexEvent;
import mx.events.TouchInteractionEvent;
import spark.components.List;
public class MyList extends List
{
public function MyList()
{
super();
//add event listeners
addEventListener(FlexEvent.UPDATE_COMPLETE,
updateCompleteHandler);
}
//update complete
protected function updateCompleteHandler(event:FlexEvent):void
{
//fake touch start
fakeTouchEvent(TouchInteractionEvent.TOUCH_INTERACTION_START);
callLater(endTouch);
}
//quit touch event
protected function endTouch():void {
//fake touch end
fakeTouchEvent(TouchInteractionEvent.TOUCH_INTERACTION_END);
}
//fake touch event
protected function fakeTouchEvent(type:String):void {
var evt:TouchInteractionEvent = new
TouchInteractionEvent(type);
evt.relatedObject = scroller;
scroller.dispatchEvent(evt);
}
}
}
