I have a DataGrid set up and have the XML data nice and cozy inside of it, but I have a bit of a snag. The data I'm importing comes from a few separate files but the DataGrid ends up displaying all of them, so the rows are a bit of a jumble initially. Is there a way to tell the DataGrid, AFTER it has all of it's data, to sort itself out alphabetically based on it's first column?

I want to sort items in the datagrid alphabetically by name.The order should be:
1) The name should first check for upeercase of the name if it is not then it should look for lowercase for the same letter alphabetically.
For example : if i have array of items say{Apple,boy,ant,Bat) then after sorting the list shld be
Apple
ant
Bat
boy
I'm creating a facebook application in flex. I'm actually working on the friends component that shows your friends who are using the application. now, each friend has a profile image.
I created the component using a s:List element.
In the Skin Class of the element i configured the requestedColumnCount to 3, which means it shows 3 friends. i added buttons to scroll left and right in the list.
Whenever I scroll to see a different friend, for a half of a second i see no image because the List component is loading the image in order to view it.
is there a way to make the list preload all the elements so i won't have this kind of problem ?
When I get a collection back from the service tier, I create an ArrayCollection and apply a sort. When I add an item to the collection later on, the sort is still in place? It seems to be the case. I thought I was only sorting it once, not applying a sort that will stick??Here is the method for adding an item:
private function onAddNewClick():void
{
var fileTemplate:FileTemplateDetailDTO = new FileTemplateDetailDTO();

I need to sort String items in an Array. Actually I need to organize children of a MOvieClip inside an Array.
I have a "menu" mc object which has 8 children with names "m1", "m2", and so on..... the last one is "m8" . They are NOT created dynamically.
the children are even organized in layers alphabetically.
i've already tried:

//for each (var item:MovieClip in menu)

Is there a way to make the datagrid scroll if it's width exceeds it's parent container (instead of making the parent container scroll?) I have a datagrid with a fixed column, and of course I want the scrollbar to appear for the datagrid and not the enclosing HBox. I already set minWidth of the HBox to 0, tried autoLayout=false, but with no effects. The datagrid is dynamically created in AS3, so the enclosing container.
Maybe I did not express my needs clearly - the content of the datagrid should not be wider than the datagrid itself. I just want to surrounding Canvas of the Datagrid to not have any scrollbars and let the datagrid itself scroll. But just setting the scrollpolicy to off on the Canvas will not yield to scrollbars on the datagrid, it will rather clip the data.
I have a datagrid. I add a row to the datagrid using an ADD button. Once I add, I sort the datagrid based on a column. I also provide the serial numbers i.e. row numbers as first column to the datagrid. But, the serial number function does not apply after sorting. Hence, a new row added for e.g. row 5, based on sorting should be row 1, the serial number displayed is still row 5. The UI looks bad as numbers are not in correct order. the code is:[code]

View 2 RepliesI have a spark DataGrid component with several columns and I want to have my application default to descending order on the first column in the DataGrid. I would like to use the built-in default sort that occurs when clicking the top header once. I have no need to sort the ArrayCollection I'm working with or change what the comparators are.I also want any user-generated sorting such as clicking on a different column's header to override the default sorting.

View 4 RepliesI have an mc that has 12 buttons on 12 layers all btns have alpha tweens for 10 frames so the appear like this
btn 1 alpha fr 1 to 10
btn2 alpha fr10 to 20
btn3 alpha fr20 to 30 and so on.
at the end of the clip there is a stop.on the first frame of the button actions I have as follows
btn_loreal.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, addLorealswf_click);
function addLorealswf_click(evt:MouseEvent):void {
MovieClip(this.root).gotoAndPlay("loreal");
}

I keep getting the 1009 error soon as the mc gets to the last frame NOW, if I put all the buttons and remove all frames from 11 on so all buttons alphatise at the same time and the mc ends on frame 10 the error disappears How can I alphabetize each button at a different time without getting the error?
I have a DataGrid with info like this:
Associate AmountTimeCustomer
John Doe 29amSam Smith
John Doe 210amBerry Cooper
Bill Ace 19amSandy James
Repeating the name and amount gets redundant so I would like it to look something like this:
Associate Amount
John Doe 2
Bill Ace 1
Then when you select one, it expands to show the times and customers for the selected associate. I hope this makes sense...I am currently just using a DataGrid but I can use an AdvancedDataGrid if thats needed...I am pretty sure something like this can be done, I just don't know how.My data is in xml and looks like this:
<stat associate="John Doe" date="08/12/09" amount="2" time="9 am" customer="Sam Smith"/>
<stat associate="John Doe" date="08/12/09" amount="2" time="10 am" customer="Berry Cooper"/>
<stat associate="Bill Ace" date="08/12/09" amount="1" time="9 am" customer="Sandy James"/>

I'm trying to do something with eventListeners, but i still do a lot of messy code, so wanted help of those who already know flex.
I'm have a DataGrid, and its itens are added by another component, no problems with that.
I have buttons to Add, Remove and Edit the items inside the DataGrid. No problem with that too.
But i want those button to be enabled when the DataGrid as at least one item, and when it doesn't as any, all three buttons should be disabled.
EDIT: Forgot to say: I think eventListeners are the best way.
I am trying to display a list of items in a datagrid from a XMLList.
<Series no="1">
<file>
<filenum>1</epnum>
<prodnum>4V01</prodnum>
[code]...
My current code allows me to retrieve every Series into an XMLList and then i have a nesteddatagrid class that allows me to do things like.
<classes:NestedDataGrid width="100%" height="100%" id="gridFiles" dataProvider="{filesList}" >
<classes:columns>
<mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Season" dataField="@no" width="60"/>
[code]...
However this displays the datagrid with two rows, the first row has 1 in the Series column and then the two files crammed into the second cell in the same row. The second row is the same but has the number 2 in the Series column and the two series #2 files crammed into the cell next to it.If i do not use the nested data class i can pull the files using Series.file instead and all 4 of the files list correctly, however i do not get the Series number for each...
Is there a way to have ungrouped and grouped items mixed in the same datagrid?
For example, think of a grid that lists the root items on a C: drive.
Obviously, we would want the Directory Structure to be group and expandable. But the files on the root drive would also be shown on the list, however they would not be grouped.
a datagrid which renders some items. clicking on an item would bring up a popup editor (as the item has lots of properties and may not be edited right in the datagrid).
the popup contains just a form and a [Bindable] reference to the item it edits (which is passed from itemClick handler of the datagrid). form's default values are taken by binding to corresponding item properties with {} notion, while form values are bound back to the item using mx:Binding tags.
and now the problem. when the popup is brought up for the first time, everything is fine. however, when after being closed the popup is brought up again by clicking on the same item, the browser hangs (afaik because of change watchers being endlessly fired resulting in stackoverflow or something similar).
we have same behaviour in Safari, IE and Chrome, so i guess it's not to do with something browser-related. removing either [Bindable] from the item reference in the popup or mx:Binding tags from editors suppresses the problem, but of course the editing no longer works.
here's the code of the popup:
<mx:TitleWindow xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" title="Details"
showCloseButton="true" close="PopUpManager.removePopUp(this);" creationComplete="PopUpManager.centerPopUp(this)">
<mx:Script>

I have a DataGrid where some number of the columns can have a labelFunction. The nature of the labelFunction result can change problematically(eg apply formatting,bypass formatting. How do I get the DataGrid to re-render the visible items so that the labelFunction will be run again to get the new data.I've tried the invalidateDisplayList, validateNow, and tried dispatching ResizeEvents on the DataGrid.

I have entered the following code and both items do import, but i cant control the label of the second library item called "Cool"After doing some digging, i think i found out the class name of the second object was called "Cool" and the base class was "import flash.display.SimpleButton;" so it looked like i had to import that class at the top like i did! But still not working. and still no joy!I think i need to add in "public class Cool extends SimpleButton" so it inherits the SimpleButton class after the first public class and then create a new function called "public function Cool() " and then add the function body but when i go to do that it all goes wrong. Am i on the right track or am i missing a trick!!

I've got a combo box adding items from an array. The labels are working just fine, but adding the data with a variable won't work for me. If I put in an actual number, I get that result, but trying to add it with a variable I always get 1 as a result. classData only ever = 1. I can access the array. I know it must be in the syntax.[code]
