1. your Presentation object needs to have a “children” ArrayCollection property, each of which is a Slide. (If you don’t call the property “children”, you need to supply a MOCCASIN_CHILDREN_PROPERTY with the name you used.)

2. override PresentationView’s createChildView() method to create a SlideView() for a new Slide child model.

3. when you create your new Presentation, add a Slide to it. This should cause the SlideView to be created.

Note that if you’re trying to be like PowerPoint or Keynote, you might not actually want your presentation views to be in the MoccasinView along with the slides. In that case you might want to make the SlideView the root model object of your MoccasinView and show the Presentation views somewhere else, like as items in an mx:List component.

I’m really impressed with your framework. I’ve managed to figure out quite a bit. One thing I’m working on at the moment is a graphical presentation editor. I can’t seem to figure out how to make an app that goes one model deeper i.e.

-> Moccasin -> Presentation -> Slide. I can get the editor functionality working on the PresentationView but I’d ultimately like to extend it to the SlideView. Problem is when I create a new Presentation Model it needs to automatically create a new slide model and attach it.

Hopefully all of that makes sense? Essentially all I want to do is take your simpleworld example and add another layer. e.g.

Moccasin -> Universe -> World -> Square
