----------------------------------------

Hi guys!
More than one year passed after the issues was reported. Recently I've found workaround for this issue.

First, you need update you textflow by adding all new graphics elements. Than, before scrolling down, you need to updateAllControllers();
During this updateAllControllers, exception is thrown and you catch it.

try
{
	textFlow.flowComposer.updateAllControllers(); 
} 
catch(error:Error) 
{	
}

chatText.verticalScrollPosition = chatText.contentHeight - chatText.height;	

Original issues comes from ContainerController.as, line 3178, updateGraphics method.

During debugging I've sorted out, that for this line we come with  floatIndex = 1. After that we do floatIndex--, and floatIndex is equals to 0, and after that we are trying to do floatInfo=_composedFloats[-1]; and of course we get floatInfo == null, and on the last line we do null.graphics and we get an exception.

while (containerListIndex == -1 && floatIndex > 0)
{
	floatIndex--;
	floatInfo = _composedFloats[floatIndex - 1];
	containerListIndex = _floatsInContainer.indexOf(floatInfo.graphic);
}

> Workaround (if any):
>  Not found yet...

> At the beginning, I was trying to isolate this runtime TypeError : http://paste.balbinus.org/788 which is due to my updateVScroll() too.
> Sorry if this test case is not perfect :x
> Note : This bug doesn't happen in the Flex 4.1 SDK, I'm using the Flex 4.5.0.19786.
