Flash - Enable Tab Key Navigation On A Datagrid Where The Cells Are Custom Item Renderers?
May 26, 2011
This is a snippet of code in our custom item renderer which is in actionscript:
textCustomItemRendererTempForTab.tabEnabled=true;
textCustomItemRendererTempForTab.focusEnabled=true;
textCustomItemRendererTempForTab.setFocus();
Alert.show( "Without this alert focus goes to next grid " );
keyboardEvent.preventDefault();
keyboardEvent.stopImmediatePropagation();
keyboardEvent.stopPropagation();
Right now tab navigation works (on tab, focus goes to next editable cell) with the alert inserted in the code but I'm not sure why because I believe the alert in the code breaks the flow of event bubbling. However without the alert (which is what we are going for) the focus goes to the next grid in our UI.
You can see the attempts of trying to stop the event from going to other components. I have also tried to call preventDefault() and stopPropagation() on the datagrid when it receives a tab key event.
how to allow proper tab key navigation without an alert?

I have a custom item renderer which displays a different gif in the row depending on data value from the data object. When i set the image source url using the absolute path and not embedding it works fine however when i embed the images i find that when i scroll up and down the grid the images get messed up and sometimes sit on top of each other. why embedding images in my hbox item renderer is causing so hassle;
code
public var equipment:Image;
public var compr_icons:Bitmap = new AssetManager.COMPUTER_ICON;
.. do some logic
equipment.addChild(compr_icons);

I'm using the Spark DataGrid for the first time and finding it generally very usable.There's something I'd like to do with the contents of my grid now that I've drawn it though and I'm a bit stuck as how to proceed.I'd like to make a function that runs through each cell of a certain column in the DataGrid, that checks each value against an Array of predefined values; if it finds a match, it should then highlight the cell as conflicting, by changing its colour.I know you can access a particular cell's item renderer, by using the getItemRendererAt() function, and passing the column and row indices. But I can't see how I would, for example, loop through the values in each column

I have an item renderer that checks an external source for display information. If that information changes, I want to force all item renderer instances to check it.
What's the best way for force all the item renderers in a list or grid to either commitProperties or execute some other method?
I've read that resetting the grid.itemRenderer property will make them all initialize. I've also received the suggestion to iterate recursively through all the grid's children and call invalidateProperties on all the UIComponents I find.

I am attempting to combine two AS files that are acting as cellRenderers individually but not simultaneously for cells in a datagrid in a Flash document I have created. The first styles the cells to have alternating row colors and the second allows for non-text content to be rendered. The issue is whenever I attempt to combine them the document reports errors with "super" and "override" among others.

I've got a client who has a list of items on a Datagrid. When the row is clicked, it sends the user to another page with details of that item. The client wants the rows to act like HTML links, where the color is purple when the link has been previously visited and its normal color if the row hasn't been clicked in the past. I've accomplished this with item renderers and SharedObjects. The application loads the visited ids into an array on start and the item renderer colors the individual cells if that row had been visited.
The issue here is that the client also wants the text color in the rows to turn white when the user rolls over the row. Because the item renderer sets the color, it doesn't respond to the default stylesheet for the datagrid. I can make it turn white on rollover of an individual cell, but we need the whole row to do it. Is there a way to trigger a function in all the item renderers in the row, or is there a better way to accomplish this?

I'm trying to have multiple item renderers in a list, as I have several different types of objects that I want to display. I tried creating a new class that extends ListBase, and adding override public function createItemRenderer with my code within this function. I then instantiate the new class and give it my array of data as its dataProvider, but createItemRenderer is never called within my new class,

I have an item renderer for a list containing an image, label and a checkbox.These are visible depending on the dataProvider property of the list.E.g if an image is a premium image then display the premium label, if an image is a favourite then display a star etc.The problem is i have a massive if statement, and this doesn't seem good practice.

I have a List component using multiple item renderers determined by the itemRendererFunction. When I set the data the first time, it works as expected. Then, when I set the data a second time with new data, it doesn't call the itemRendererFunction and tries to reuse the current renderers even though they don't match the data.Once I scroll, the function is called and the correct renderers are used. I tried calling invalidateDisplayList and such prior to setting the data, but that didn't fix the problem.

You can hook into the creation of Flex 4 item renderers easily enough (through itemRenderer, or itemRendererFunction) allowing you to pull renderers from a custom object pool, but how would you put those renderers back into the pool?
I understand that layout virtualization does a form of object pooling, but I'd like a way to hook in to that. For example, when an itemRendererFunction has been assigned to a data group with a virtualized layout, item renderer construction is indeed deferred, but the instances are not re-used - I'd like to be able to intervene there, if possible.
But even in the case of normal virtualized renderers (where the instances are re-cycled) it would still be useful to be able to manage the pool manually. Pools could be shared between data groups, for example, to reduce the initial buffer required to populate each group.
Is there any way to know when Flex discards an item renderer instance? I have a sinking feeling that there is just no reliable way to tell - even though perhaps there should be.

Is there any way to merge cells (vertically and/or horizontally) in a datagrid? At least, for example, is there a way to show that certain datagridcolumns belong to one group. For example, I'll take three columns: column1, column2, column3. All these three should be grouped to the Category cell with a rowspan of 3 -- a "super header" if you will.

I have created a custom multiline item renderer for mx:Tree component. Important to mention that my item renderer has two UITextFields in it. Sometimes (depends of the input data) only one of UITextFields must be shown, so when second UITextField is not needed I hide it and recalculate the height of my item renderer. According to my tests height is calculated properly.The problem occures when I do scroll of my tree. The error text is:
TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.

I am using the flex datagrid to allow the user to edit some data. My update process relies on a CollectionEvent of type update. Basically I catch this event package the values and update the database. However, if the user edits a cell then moves to edit a cell in the same row the value is updated but a collection event is not fired. Only when clicking out of the row the event is fired. Has anyone had experience with this. I have heard the datagrid is a little quirky is this one of those quirks or am I doing this all wrong?

I was looking around sites for navigation, and came across this: [URL]. I really like the way the menu with the four to five movies that scroll to the left and when hovering over them, the one you chose expands, pushes the other ones to the right of it away, and shows a description, stopping the movement. I'm thinking that this is partially the same concept as the infinite scroller, but how did they enable the object to "push" the other objects away? Tween class? [URL]
