Sorry, I am guessing this has a very simple answer, but I am just not able to empiric nor google my way out of the problem…

How can I access the current array element, instead of its “properties”, so that I do not need to explicit pass all of the array objects properties to a component class?  
I.e (mockup, may contain compile errors, just to show):

```auto
<JavaScript>
	var ArrayOfActions = [
		{label: "Add", description: "Add some action"},
		{label: "Delete", description: "Delete some action"}
	];
</JavaScript>

<Panel ux:Class="MyButton">	
	<object ux:Property="MyAction"/>		
	<JavaScript>
	       	var localMyAction= this.MyAction.inner();
    	</JavaScript>
	<Button Value="{localMyAction.label}" />
</Panel>

<Each Items="{ArrayOfActions}">
	<MyButton MyAction="{OBJECT???}" />
</Each>

```

I assume the local javascript in class MyButton is also necessary, according to how I interpret Class-documentation.

Any support would be very much appretiated!

Hi Erland,

your custom component implicitly receives the data context of that iterated item. You don’t need to _pass_ anything. Also, no special local JavaScript viewmodel is necessary (but you can have one if you like).

So then, you can just use `{label}` and `{description}` directly, also when inside of your component.

Geesh, I knew I was going to feel stupid about the answer…

Thanks a bunch! Made things so much cleaner.
