I'm trying to change data in a dataGrid field. I'm using XML as the dataProvider. I need to be able to click on a button outside of the dataGrid and cause the data to update as a result of the button push.

I'm exploring various ways to get data into a DataGrid component from a remote service. I've managed to use DataGlue to map my results to different fields the DataGrid, however what I'd like to do is use the component inspector to and bindings. The Problem i have is that I want to display only certain fields. so in the remoting connector i have this set up conn::results.items.[n].id => grid::dataProvider.[n].identifier Now I would assume that my grid would show the id in the results returned but it doesn't. I've seen a lot of posts on this so I know there are a lot of others puzzled by this.
View 1 RepliesIt is very simple to retrieve data from a database and display it inside a DataGrid. However, what are the current practices to push the changes in the DataGrid back to the database? One can achieve this by inserting a lot of meta information, however, it is very tedious and not reusable.
View 4 RepliesThe data provider (ArrayCollection) for my data grid consists of objects with ByteArray (int) fields. How do I make the data field display as int without transforming my data provider?
View 1 RepliesI have two datagrids:
- Division
- Members
Both have single columns. Selecting one item from Divsions datagrid should display members of that Division in the Members datagrid. But following code has some problem and Members of a particular division do not show up when respective Divsion is clicked.
Following are some snippets of the related code. Hope someone can spot an error in it.

I've got a Gridcolumn in a Datagrid (Spark). The Column's dataprovider is a Number value that gets updated via Binding.Now, without an item renderer the cell displays the correct values.If I set an item renderer, I can't access the values in this renderer.My renderer looks like this, so nothing really do here (for now) but to trace the value, but the value is always NaN.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:GridItemRenderer xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" width="100%" height="100%" >[code].......
without the renderer, the column displays the correct values, so apparently the DefaultGridItemRenderer works fine.As requested, here is my Datagrid;
<s:DataGrid id="dataGrid" dataProvider="{_listItems}">
<s:columns>
<s:ArrayList>[code]..........
_listItems is an ArrayList with instances of a model class, which has (amongst others) a property called change of type Number.
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).
I got a music portfolio web site running PHP, MySQL and Flash. There's a page showing all the artists my client worked for and when you click on a song title, this title is passed as a variable to a PHP page then to a Flash page. The Flash page contains an actionscript music player which then looks for the right audio file in the database and plays the song. Everything works great except for the dynamic text field which displays the song title. If the song title contains an apostrophe or a single quote, the Flash dynamic text field then shows the apostrophe.[code]

How can i change the color, when the user mouse over an item on datagrid or tilelist. Basically once the user mouse overs and once the user selects a file. How to change the default color to something else. The default is blue and i dont like it :)
View 3 Repliesi'm using a custom cellrenderer set the styles of the grid cells (ie. selectedUpSkin, overSkin, etc.)I've also set up some mouse events to set a mouseover flag, however this is cell-specific and only allows me to change the text color in a single cell instead of the entire row as shown here:[code]how can i alternatively change the text color of an entire row of cells?
View 1 RepliesI'm using an editable datagrid where the user is typing in their data. When they click outside the datagrid it doesn't show the last value they entered. The value is there and if you click on that field again it will show up. If you click outside the field for a second time, this time the value stays displayed. How can I get the value to show up the first time the datagrid looses focus?[code]
View 2 RepliesHere's a simple test:
1) create a new AS3 project.
2) add a dynamic text field to the stage, give it an instance of "txt" or something and make it render html text
3) on frame 1 add this code:
Code:
txt.htmlText="<b>bold</b> <i>ital</i> <u>underline</u>";
if you test the movie, it looks fine.
4) add another text field to the stage, this one should be a static text field; put some text in it and test the movie again.
5) if you delete the static field and add another dynamic field, all is well again. Simply changing the static field doesn't work. It needs to be deleted and re-added.
I can't cope with the inheritance of this AS 3.0! I have the next code:
package {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.text.*;
public class CText extends Sprite {
[code]....
My only purpose is to create a text field, which is formatted and to have a chance to manipulate it later, so I think I need to express it as a Sprite.
Why does Flex 3 DataGrid read a string from XML lastResult.node as number?A field is saved as var_char in mysql, php reads it as string and pass it OK.If there are more then 16 charaters it gets rounded....For example:
this in database cell:
12345678901234567
gets read in DataGrid as nubmer as 12345678901234568
this is in database cell:
5555544444222223333377777
php reads it same and puts it in XML flex reads XML into arrayCollection and DataGrid reads it as:
5.55554444422222e+24
So it reads it as number, why? And how to make it read as String? I tried with labelFunction, no help.
I would like to be able to push a text field's value into an array on a button click, then have that array populate a data grid. I'm kind of new to flex and was wondering if someone could point me in a direction or show me how to do this.

I am using a downloaded script and it is helping me out tremendously. After a little manipultion it is doing wonders for my intended project. The script yields a nunber into a dynamic text field that I would like to enlarge. In other words, make the font larger. I changed the size of the text field but the font size didn't change.Here's my script:
stop();
if (!initialized){

I am at work right now trying to create a power point for our Christmas party. I know I can do so much more with Flash than I can with any other power point program. Right now, I'm trying to figure out a way to load a list of names into one dynamic text field that changes at certain time intervals. I'm using ActionScript 2 right now b/c I haven't learned 3, yet. Is there a way for Flash to access a word document and load a name say, every minute? I know I could add a different variable name in front of each employee name, like content, content1, content2, but I have a list of like 300 names here. That would take up almost as much time as it would creating a slide for each name in Power Point.

View 1 RepliesI am trying to change the background color of a textInput field.
I have tried:
ActionScript Code:
var textInputFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
textInputFormat.color = 0xFF0000;

However this doesn't want to work.
Is it possible to change part of the text in a dynamic text field using Actionscript? For example can I change the color of some words that are in the middle of a sentence?
View 5 RepliesI have a xml menu bar with the menu titles in black. This titles are loaded from an xml file into a dynamic text field inside a movieclip. Well, i would like to set the color of the menu items to red when clicked and back to black when any other menu item is clicked. I know there is a way with actionscript (i have been going on circles around the color class the hole afternoon ) but i cant find it (i admit, im quite a dummy with AS).
View 2 RepliesI have an input text field in which the user enters text. This text is displayed in an output textfield. The user should have the option to change the color of a selection, This color should be applied to the selection in both the input and output textfield. After that the user should be able to further edit the text without loosing the fomatting.
But pictures say more than words so...
1. The user selects text and sets the color to yellow
2. The text color is set to yellow just like I want
3. This is the actual issue. When the text (in the input field) is edited all text in the ouput field goes black again That's not what I want, I want the colored text to stay colored when the input is edited.
This is my code:
Code:
txt_Input.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_UP, fncOutput)
btn_Format.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fncFormat)
var tfmBlack:TextFormat = new TextFormat();

Is there a way to make the default item renderer in a Datagrid look like a text input field?
I just want to tell the user, that he can change the value of this cell.
I have an input text field that is named in the properties box as 'numberOfKids'. When the program is executed, and a delete or backspace is pressed the input textfield goes blank and any calculations that use 'numberOfKids' shows NaN.I have trapped the NaN and undefined so that a numeric 0 shows up instead of a blank.
First problem: The cursor is to the left of the zero, so the first number inputted by the user is 10x larger than what they want. 0 becomes 10. How do I get the cursor to move to the right of the 0?
Second Problem: When I manually move the cursor to the right of the 0 and input a number, say 4, it shows up as 04. How do I delete the leading numeric zero in the input textfield?
Here's the code I am using:
calculateChildWeight = function () { if (isNaN(numberOfKids)) { numberOfKids = 0; } if ((numberOfKids) == undefined) { numberOfKids = 0; } if (numberOfKids>=0 && numberOfKids<=137) { numberOfKids = numberOfKids; } else { numberOfKids = 0; } if (isNaN(adjustedChildWeight)) { adjustedChildWeight = 0; } if ((adjustedChildWeight)=undefined) { adjustedChildWeight = 0; } adjustedChildWeight = Number(numberOfKids*(-100)); //numberOfKids.setSelection(numberOfKids.length, numberOfKids.length); //if (numberOfKids.length=2 && numberOfKids<10) { // remove the first character or leading zero// numberOfKids = numberOfKids;// }};
I'm doing an AIR app scheduler to load data from a .txt. I'm able to trace the data in flash but how do I put those data into flash components (maybe datagrid? Maybe something that can let the user delete part of the entry of their schedule in the scheduler. For example if they wish to delete entry 5 of the scheduler, what should the code for the app be? After displaying the code in the app via flash, the user will be able to delete the fifth entry in the scheduler, or something similiar to this idea. How can I achieve that?
