Either way you should be able to avoid using the extra variable (which should be a const for performance) - definitely easier on memory and the GC.

Hey, I just LOVED the wallpaper in the demo (here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flex/media/flexapp ). Is this a personal picture or something from the web? Any way I can get a hold of it? Thanks!

The const doesn't help avoid state name typos in MXML but should help to keep typos in ActionScript from causing problems that are not picked up by the compiler. -James Hi Matt,
