Answer 1

I had the same issue with a select all/ select item directive I was writing. My issue was the select all check box was in a table header row and the select item was in the table body. I got around it by implementing a pub/sub notification service so the directives could talk to each other. This way my directive did not care about how my htlm was structured. I really wanted to use the require property, but using a service worked just as well.
