I was a heavy user of _root, and your article was a huge help into why what I was used to isn't there anymore, and why it shouldn't be either. I wasn't really interested in the display list, that all made sense to me, but the rest of the article really helped me understand AS3 much better! :) Thanks!

Place the items in the List in reverse, then do a conversion whenever you need to reference the real index. <code>myList.dataProvider.length - index</code> You don't seem to be very interested in that idea though, and I'm not sure why. The alternative I think you're trying to get someone to suggest is to reimplement the List component to make it display items from the bottom instead of the top. Sounds like a lot more work to me.

I would love to get some in put from you on this. You can follow with others as we try to figure it out. http://www.kirupa.com/forum/showthread.php?t=274308 Please note that it was hard to formulate my question add it may seem vague at first, but I think I became more clear as to what I was trying to achieve in later posts. So you may want to skip to the end of the discussion to get a better idea of whats going on. - thanks I have been struggling with making a list component represent a display list.
