NewDate always null in CalendarLayoutChangeEvent ??

Question

I have this simple DateChooser config in flex sdk 2.0 beta 3
and the property newDate of the event CalendarLayoutChangeEvent is
always null (regardless of chosing a date) in my method
changeDate(event), see below.
I don't know, but maybe this is a bug, or do I do something
wrong, or maybe can reproduce this ?
Cheers,
Ed
<mx:DateChooser width="100%" id="DatePicker"
visible="false"
cornerRadius="2" borderColor="#c0c0c0" themeColor="#878ffc"
fillColors="[#FAFCFD, #FAFCFD]" showToday="true"
showEffect="FadeDate"
dragEnter="doDragEnter(event);" dragDrop="doDragDrop(event)"
change="this.changeDate(event)"
mouseMove="dragIt(event)" doubleClick="dblClickDate()"
doubleClickEnabled="true"
/>
The method changeDate:
private function
changeDate(event:CalendarLayoutChangeEvent): void {
trace("[change date], calendar event: " + event);
if (event.newDate != null {
..... do something

Answer 1

It does work
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import mx.events.CalendarLayoutChangeEvent;
function runTests(event:CalendarLayoutChangeEvent) {
textResult.text= event.type + " event Triggered, ";
textResult.text+= "target newDate " + event.newDate;
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:DateChooser id="mydatechooser"
change="runTests(event)" />
<mx:TextInput id="textResult" />
