addchild problem
Hi,
One of my mediator (let's say mediator1) has a method that does
several things (in the following order):
1. Dispatches an event that is received by another mediator and it
adds a visual component to the display list.
2. Calls a method in mediator1, that sums the heights of all
children in a view. The same view where the child in point 1 must
be added.
The problem is that the child is added after point 2 is executed and I don't get the correct measures.
How can I avoid that? How can I make sure that the events and it's handlers are executed before continuing with the rest of the logic?
tks.

I just noticed that the child is been added but it isn't completely created, so its height is 0.

So you might have the parent component listen on the child for CREATION_COMPLETE and notify the mediator that it is ready and then run the logic. I'm assuming this is Flex here, but the same principle could be applied with straight AS3.

yeap, I thought on that solution, but is there a way to control or force things to happen right away? something like commitAllChanges() ?

got it working with the creationComplete event.
Thanks
