EventDispatcher from custom class

I dispatch a customEvent from a class.?The class extends EventDispatcher, and I can verify that the event does in fact get dispatched.?But it's not getting picked up by the mxml component or the main application container.?Bubbles is set to true.?What am I missing here?

EventDispatcher from custom class

Only DisplayObjects can use bubbling=true and only when on the display list. Bubbling is generally bad practice except for UI input events. Define singletons that other parts of the app can talk directly to.
