I have a dataGrid with a custom dataGridColumn having as itemRenderer MyItemRenderer. My problem is that I want from MyItemRenderer to access informations in the dataGridColumn. More exactly I would like for an itemRenderer I would like to know the associated dataGridColumn.

I have an itemrenderer used by multiple datagridcolumns and I need to have some condition in the itemrenderer based on the headertext of the datagrid column. Can I access the headertext property from within the itemrenderer?
My itemrenderer extends the LinkButton control and implements the IDropInListItemRenderer interface.
Is it possible to put an itemrenderer on the DataGrid itself rather than a datagridcolumn? I could only find examples for datagridcolumn. I want a generic itemrenderer on all the items in a datagrid...

I am using a custom componenet based off of text as an itemRenderer for a dataGrid that is displaying an XMLList. I want to be able to re-use this itemRenderer for multiple columns, how do I access the dataGridColumn so I know which field to assign to the text value?
super.data gives me the whole XML item, super.parentDocument gives me the whole DataGrid
I have a datagrid that I want to add a column of radio button using AS3 (instead of mxml). I was able to do this with a custom itemRenderer.
var dgc:DataGridColumn = new DataGridColumn();
dgc.itemRenderer = new ClassFactory(com.mypackage.RadioBtnColumnItemRenderer);
In my RadioBtnColumnItemRenderer.mxml, I have a box with a radioButton... like so:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Box xmlns:mx="[URL]" horizontalAlign="center" verticalAlign="middle">
<mx:RadioButton id="btnRadio" groupName="btnRadioSelect"/>
</mx:Box>
When I run the application, the radio button shows up in the column as it should. However, I cannot select just ONE of the radio buttons. I am able to select all of them, but I don't want this... I want the ability to select one and then if I select another one, then the first one is unselected and the current one becomes selected (just like you would expect radio buttons to work).
I'm trying to reach the dataField of a DataGridColumn in the itemRenderer. Below is the dataGrid:
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
[Bindable] public var weeksOfMoth:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([

In the set data function of the itemRenderer, I receive an entire week (which is ok), but the itemRenderer doesn't know which day to use because the dataField is unknown. Does anyone know how to reach this dataField in the itemRenderer?
I have this code. I want to add Buttons in the second column of the data grird.

How can I add buttons in second column using an ItemRenderer?
On my flex (flash builder 4) DataGrid - DataGridColumn , I have set a custom itemRenderer
itemRenderer="myComponents.EncounterDGItemRenderer".
My renderer is a Label
public class EncounterDGItemRenderer extends Label
I found that my tooltips (datatips) stopped working once I started using this custom renderer. I also found that I can set the tooltip on the label in the
override protected function updateDisplayList
by setting:
toolTip=data['addedDate'];
This works find, however the problem is I need to choose a different data field based on the column. I was hoping for something similar to how a DataGridColumn labelFunction works - where I have access to "column.headerText" or "column.dataField". However I only have access to the underlying data object, not the name of what is being displayed (unless I am missing something).
Is there a way in a data grid item renderer to know what the column header text is, or do you have a different approach?
I have a DataGrid whose dataProvider is an Array of int Arrays (each with different lengths). Since each row has variable size (and I want to display all the data), I decided to extend DataGridColumn and overwrite the itemToLabel function to be able to display the data. The problem is that I also need to display the data differently depending on the int value.
I believe the only solution is to write an itemRenderer, but the only input the itemRenderer.set(data) function receives is the entire int Array. I believe I need either the exact string returned by itemToLabel or the column index of the cell the itemRenderer is for (to basically do the same parsing I implemented in itemToLabel).
Within a DataGrid, I have a DataGridColumn that uses a custom component as the item renderer. Within the component, I have an ArrayCollection that stores a set of value objects. My problem is that I cannot access the ArrayCollection values from outside of the item renderer component. Does anyone know how it would be possible to do this? I have posted a code snippet below.
<mx:Script>

Ok, here's my requirement in short-I have a datagrid that is updated every time data update is received. Now, all I want to do is check if the present value in every cell in a specific datagridcolumn is less than the new value then color that particular cell green, if the present value is greater than the new value then color it red, else leave previous color as it is. Simple?Now, the coloring part is important but comes later. As of now, I need to know how to get present cell data in the labelfunction of the datagridcolumn.
// column is a datagridcolumn
column.labelFunction = function(oData:Object)
{

I have an s:List with a custom itemRenderer and a dataprovider. What I would like to do is access the generated instances of the item renderer but I have no idea how.
Here is the code for the list:
<s:List id="layersList"
borderVisible="false"
allowMultipleSelection="true"
[Code]....
layersList.renderers[selectedIndex] or layersList.selectedItems[0].renderer. In order to access some of its internal objects. Like in the event I would want to listen events dispatched in the renderer instance from the List's parent.
Can somebody share an example on how to set the backgroundcolor of a datagridcolumn (dynamically)?

I'd like to use an embedded font in the column headers of my datagrid. Although this seems like it should be a pretty common task, I seem to have stumped Google trying to find a decent, modern example (that actually works) for creating an appropriate headerRender in Flex 4.
Can anyone point me to an example of how to use an embedded font in the column header of a datagrid? I've spent hours trying to figure this out.
I have a datagrid column with a button that opens a modal dialog box allowing the user to upload multiple files. In the code below, the browseAndUpload() method does that. When the user finished uploading files and closes the upload box the closeUpload() method is called. I know for a fact that the uploaded files are being copied into arrFiles.
The problem I am having is that the repeater will not show the files in arrFiles. Here is the code:
<mx:DataGridColumn id="dgcUpload" width="42" headerText="Uploaded Files"

I can't see a way to get rid of certain borders within a DataGrid. I'd like to eliminate a side border on 2 of my columns so that they appear to look like a single column.I'm trying to implement a "clear value" button on each of my DataGrid rows. I was able to have a button show on a custom ItemRenderer from a separate ActionScript file, but I was unsure how to have the button click event propagate to the mxml file where the DataGrid is located. It would be much easier for me to have an extra unresizable column with a 'clear' button.
So, to reiterate: Is there any way to change the border style or eliminate certain borders of a DataGridColumn?
I have a DatagridColumn in flex with two names, TYPE and NAME. Now, when I am sorting a datagridcolumn, TYPE, it sorts the type using sortcomparefunction and gives the result which contains grouped and sorted order of elements. Ex. if I sort for type I get elements in pdf, doc, ppt in grouped order, but they are internally not sorted, ex: for the pdf part, I have elements such as:
TYPE NAME
pdf A1.pdf
pdf X2.pdf
pdf B1.pdf
Here the filetypes are sorted, but for a particular filetype, the elements are not, please notice that B1 occurs after X2, which should be sorted. Is there a way I can sort the second datagridcolumn after sorting the first one according to filetype extensions? I am using sortcomparefunction for sorting the elements according to type , which works fine. The signature is:
private function sortTheTypeColumn(itemA:Object, itemB:Object):int
I have the following datagrid:
<mx:DataGrid id="question" x="9" y="289" width="100%" height="54" visible="{false}" >
<mx:columns>
<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="ans1" headerText="ans1"/>[code]..........
I need to access the data pointed by the dataField, and bind it to a label, but i don't known how to get it.
<s:Label id="debug" x="575" y="106" width="56" height="35" text="{data_from_coloumn_grid_ans1}" />
Is it possible to display a multiline string in a Flex DataGridColumn?i.e. Display:
Text line one.
Text line two.
I've tried putting "
","
"," " when storing the string but nothing seems to work.Currently only "Text line one." is displayed and the rest is hidden in the cell. I would prefer not to use "wordWrap=true" to emulate this behaviour in the cell, but instead be able to manually put in newline breaks (although I could turn on wordWrap to avoid long text from hiding due to cell dimensions).
I extended the DataGridColumn because I wanted to include a custom itemToLabel function (to be able to show nested data in the DataGrid. See this question.
Anyways, it also needs a custom sorting function. So I have written the sorting function like so:
private function mySortCompareFunction(obj1:Object, obj2:Object):int{
var currentData1:Object = obj1;
var currentData2:Object = obj2;
[Code].....
Whenever I try to sort the column, I get the error "Error: Find criteria must contain at least one sort field value."
When I debug and step through each step, I see that the first few times, the function is being called correctly, but towards the end, this error occurs.
I have a Datagrid thats being populated by different Arrays... (headers/columns change for the same DataGrid)... I would like to Select a Column of the Datagrid after it was generated by the Dataprovider and Bold it, and place it as the 'last column"
This is what I have.... and throwing an error:
private function populateGrid(evt:Object):void {
dg.dataProvider = evt as Array;
if (dg.columns.length > 0) {
for (var i:int = 0; i < dg.columns.length; i++) {
if (dg.columns[i].dataField == '_user_total') {
DataGridColumn((dg.columns[i].dataField)).setStyle('fontWeight', 'bold');
}}}}
This way I would like to have One Datagrid (for different Arrays) )without having the Columns fixed and declared (like in MXML), but dynamic, and would like a 'specific' column to be Bolded, and placed as the last column, in this example, the column with dataField _user_total.
I have a datagrid that uses an array of objects as the data provider. The objects are essentially key/value pairs:
{ foo:"something"}
{ bar:"hello"}
{ caca:"lorem"}
The datagrid has 2 columns. The first column is the key and the second column is the value. Right now my grid looks like:
My dataFormatter function makes sure that depending on the column (i.e. the dataField value) the correct key or value gets printed out. This works fine for displaying. However, as soon as I try and edit the value field it essentially adds a new value into the object with a key of '1'. For example, if I edit the {caca:"lorem"} object it will then contain the value {caca:"lorem",1:"new value"}.
Is there any possible way I can set the DataGridColumn so that when I edit a value it will update the value associated with the key rather than inserting a new value? I've tried using a custom item editor but it still does the insert. It seems like I need to be able to update the 'dataField' with the actual key value but I'm not sure how to do that.
