Haxe

I'd have thought that setting the property itself would be enough to trigger the onChange, even if the value is the same

yeah, im not saying its not a bug, just that my _guess_ is thats whats happening... lots of times behaviours wont run if they underlying value is the same (which is intentional)

but there can be edge cases, like for example here, if the data source is changed, i would think it should be like "nothing is selected", even if the selectedIndex is 0

hmm I'm trying to make it select the first entry though, not make it "nothing is selected", to cut down on manual clicks and changes the user has to do

so that when you change the NPC, it automatically goes onto first entry of theirs

no i mean internally, not you... i _think_ what is likely to be happening is: you have a data source, and the selected index is 0... then you change the data source, but the selected index is still zero so no event is raised

similar thing on all backends by the look of it... actually worse on composites as it doesnt even change the text

heres a cheap fix until i get round to fixing it, dont know if it will work on native though (should do): http://haxeui.org/builder/?ea936fc7

TL;DR:
```haxe
var ds = ArrayDataSource.fromArray([
    "Item " + Std.random(0xff),
    "Item " + Std.random(0xff),
    "Item " + Std.random(0xff),
    "Item " + Std.random(0xff),
    "Item " + Std.random(0xff)
]);
dd.selectedIndex = -1;
dd.dataSource = ds;
dd.selectedIndex = 0;
```

setting to -1 beforehand doesn't change whether onChange for dropdown is triggered

right, fair enough... well, ill take a look at it when i fix composites too

here's a repro

this means I'm using @:bind wrong somewhere right

I can't find anything that doesn't work in that class

I might have found the issue hold on a sec

http://haxeui.org/builder/?f3f9411c broken for other reasons now

pasted the wrong link here's real one
http://haxeui.org/builder/?a158e564

it's a ton of code but I have no idea which of my bind events it breaks in

... sorry, where is the bind? And i hope you arent expecting this to work on native too... 🙂

I don't know which bind event is broken, the error only tells me it's somewhere in main

all of them are () -> Void but it doesn't work for some reason

OK, but where is the bind? I dont see any events here
