Flex :: Can AdvancedDataGrid Automatically Detect AdvancedDataGridColumnGroup
Apr 13, 2011
I was trying the example from this link: Adobe Flex 4 * Creating column groups
The data is
import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;
[Bindable]
private var dpHierarchy:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([
{Region:"Southwest", Territory:"Arizona",
[code]....
Using this code, AdvancedDataGrid automatically detects the column names and the data. But it fails to create nested columns for Revenues. it should create 2 sub-columns for it as Actual and Estimate, but it created only one column and the shows data as [object Object]Is there any way to make AdvancedDataGrid to create the nested columns automatically?
Is there any way to detect if AdvancedDataGrid itemClick event is actually caused by the user dragging? I'd like to take action on click, but ignore drag.
I have an AdvancedDataGrid that has a couple AdvancedDataGridColumnGroup's I would like each group to have an extra column, that shows the total of all the other columns in the group. I also need to use my own calc function to calculate the totals. Is there anyway to do this? I hope I explained this well.
I was wondering if it is possible to make and App capable of listening when the user "adds" new files to a directory.
Example:
The User opens up our Application. The user adds new files on the desktop (using the Microsoft Explorer). Our application automatically detects that new files have been added and executes a function or whatever.
Maybe, this could be done using a programming language like Visual Basic and open the executable with the NativeProcess api and listen for an stdOut event.
I want to detect when the playhead hits a keyframe without having to put a function call on the keyframe. If it hits multiple keyframes at the same time (ie keyframes on different layers) I'd want to know that too. I'd happily parse some timeline data and find the keyframes myself, but I haven't been able to find out where this info can be found. Is there a Timeline Class I don't know of? I looked into xfl uncompressed format, and I could read the xml format to find the keyframes and where they're at, but thats a pre or post process, and obviously won't work with our runtime code. I want to know this inside runtime code from within flash player.
I'm using Flex 4 and I need to render the data that resembles HTML Table with row span in a Flex component.My inclination was to use a DataGrid but I believe that rowSpan is not supported for that component. I looked at the AdvancedDataGrid but the user does not want to have a tree-structure in any of the columns. Looking to see if there are any hints/tips for modifying the DataGrid or AdvancedDataGrid to produce an "HTML Table with rowspan" look.
I have implemented drag and drop between 2 AdvancedDataGrid, but the default behaviour from Flex displays the row data during the drag using the grid item renderer showing all 5 columns.
Instead, I would like to display an icon / image or my own custom item renderer during the drag and drop.
I have an AdvancedDatagrid, whose dataProvider is an ArrayCollection that contains 1 row of displayable stuff.Flex continues to display about 6 rows, the top one filled, the rest blank.I've set the rowCount="1", with no luck.
after multiple Selection in a advanced datagrid, I want to check if the clicked row, was already selected. Anyway my idea below (in the nested if clause I want to check if the newly clicked item's processing data is already in the added Array Collection) is not working, but I assume there must be a better way to differiante if an click was made on a already selected row.
model.processingData = out; if (model.selectedIndices.length > 1){ //check if item already added
I would like to add new row on the fly (runtime) to my AdvancedDataGrid.I can add it to the data model, but couldn't find a way to make the table render and show the new row.What i am seeking for is to create an effect of expandable item, where clicking on row will show "additional information" (like a drawer) and clicking on row expand button will reveal it's children.I saw examples of this for dataGrid (http:url...), but not for AdavancedDataGrid.Only way I found to do this is to add a new child and use openItem, but this cause the other children to be visible as well.
I've got a subclass of AdvancedDataGrid showing a tree-like data structure. How can I, given the index returned by calculateDropIndex, get the item at that index? After reading through reams of code, it seems like the least terrible way is:
var oldSelectedIndex:int = this.selectedIndex; var mouseOverIndex:int = this.calculateDropIndex(event); this.selectedItem = mouseOverIndex; var item:* = this.selectedItem; this.selectedIndex = oldSelectedIndex;
The other option seems to be tinkering around with the iterator property... But, judging by the way I've seen it used, that will get pretty harry pretty quickly too. So, how can I get the item at a particular index in an advanced datagrid without going insane?
Is it possible to use a renderer for for a treecolumn in an advanceddatagrid and still keep the hierarchal functionality? If I use a renderer provider I lose the the arrow for the tree dropdown. I want to keep the tree functionality and change the display of the column.(and not just the folder image)
I've a problem, I'm using an AdvancedDataGrid. It loads about 3000 records with about 20 columns. I constantly get Flex execution timeout because the grid executes a lot inside LayoutManager. How can I make it asyncronousely or faster at all?
how to query an ADG (or its rows) to figure out how many rows are currently visible (i.e. not collapsed) when displaying different levels of a hierarchical collection?In other words I'd like a function that tells me that 7 lines are visible in this view and 1 line is available in this one.
I'm making an application where I display an AdvanvedDataGrid with one column with dates(in format DD/MM/YYYY) and another with datetimes (in format HH:MM). I'd like to sort dates according with the datetimes as well(just clicking in the header of the column), there is an examplen of the expected behaviour:
I am using an AdvancedDataGrid with some hierarchical data. In the first column, I want to indicate whether or not the "name" field is editable by graying out the text for the "name" property of my objects. It's very odd, but when I set the AdvancedDataGridColumn's dataField property to "name", and have it in the first column, it seems to completely ignore my inline ItemRenderer. If I change the dataField property to something else, or change the column ordering so the Name column isn't first, everything suddenly works.
Let me know if any more code would help, but here is the simple ItemRenderer I'm trying to use in the first column:
I am using in-built sort functionality provided by AdvancedDatagrid.I have multiple columns and suppose I have 10 rows. All 10 rows have the same data in one column.If I sort on that column, then it sorts and the data in other columns which is different is also being sorted (reshuffled).My requirement is if I am sorting on a column with same data, it should not sort the data in other columns.To understand it better, check the link menioned below URL...In the above link mentioned, if you click on region column, other columns like territory or actual will change the values i.e. the rows gets reshuffled.This should not happen as we are sorting on a column which has same values. Does anybody know how this can be handled in Flex 3 for AdvancedDataGrid.
I'd like to implement a custom drag on an AdvancedDataGrid tree structure, which only allows the drag on the branches (not leaves).I'm having much difficultly with this, trying to use the MouseDown event, but not having luck! I think I've got the mousedown able to figure out if the item is a branch of leaf. Any help on how to perform the custom drag with an advanceddatagrid?? [code]
How do I determine which Flex AdvancedDataGrid cell - row and column index - I've just dropped onto? calculateDropIndex seems to give me the row, but how do I get the column?
I have an AdvancedDataGrid that I allow the user to drag/drog the rows to reorder them and also allow them to sort on columns. I want to save the row ordering so that the next time I load up the data, the row ordering is preserved.
I have a bindable array collection to the data grid. The array is a collection of a custom AS object. I tried just using the bindabled array collection I give to the datagrid but the order always stays the same.
I have a advancedDatagrid with column headers having input text boxes for filtering.The column is filtered according to input text when I use characters as data inside that column.But when I use numbers in the column field,filtering does not happen.Can anyone tell me what went wrong.
I want to extend AdvancedDataGrid to show a Waterfall Chart in one of its columns.
To do that I already created custom cell render that shows bars as I need.
Now I have a little challenge: I have to pre-process data to show my Waterfall Chart properly. I have to do it before my grid is show. So, I assume that I have to extends AdvancedDataGrid and overwrite some methods.
I'm using an AdvancedDataGrid without the header row (AdvancedDataGrid.showHeaders="false"), my AdvancedDataGrid has 2 columns, where the first one will show a hierarchical data (tree).The tree may be very long and very deep or may contain a long string in the node label so the user will not be able to see the whole vale of the tree node, I want to be able to resize the column using the vertical separator of the gris (the one displayed/separates between columns) or to be able to define a horizontal scroll bar only for the first column.
