Is there a direct way to get the item index of the data inside an itemRenderer? I need to display the item number against each item. I am currently doing a workaround and won't allow reuse of my itemRenderer component.
var index:int = model.dataColl.getItemIndex(data) + 1;
itemNo = index.toString();
This is what i am using now, it works, but the concepts of component reuse and data abstraction are compromised.
I am using Flex 3.
I was wondering if there is a shortcut so i can always set a MovieClip to display at the tippy top of the display list?
Also i understand that WebViewLayer will always display above the display list.
How to access List itemRenderer and its properties (Spark - Flex 4)?I want to iterate through list and do something like (note it's pseudo code):

myList.getItemRenderer[i].property
}

I have a Flex list and a custom ItemRenderer. I'd like to be able to have some items in the list use a different ItemRenderer (say, depending on the class of the item). Is this possible?
E.g.: <s:List dataProvider="{_systems}" itemRenderer="myItemRenderer"/>
Most items in _systems use myItemRenderer. But if element 3 of _systems is "specialSystem" the renderer would be "specialItemRenderer".
I'm creating a list of scores for a game. now most of the list i need to have the same ItemRenderer. but in one specific row of the list where the user who's playing is listed, it should show different information and with different background color. how can i achieve this ?
I already tried to resolve the issue with states, i created 2 states, one state called 'mine' and the 2nd state called 'others'.
the problems that i got is that when users click on one of the list rows that state changes to i donno clicked or something and that's why i assumed that states are not the right action for me.

View 2 RepliesI have a List with textInput as itemrenderer. Initially the list is loaded with data from a data provider. However since the items are rendered in textInputs, I have the ability to change the value of a particular item.
But when trying to access the value of the changed item using the function below, I still get the old value in my trace:
private function addItem(event:Event):void {
trace(myDataProvider.getItemAt(myList.selectedIndex).label);
}
what I need to do for the new value to be available. My itemrenderer is shown below:

i am using an itemRenderer in mx:list, it has many text fields and combos, i use this item renderer to edit items in array collection, each item in the arrayCollection is of type Action which comes from BlazeDS remoting as a valueObject.my problem is when i add new item of type Action to the list dataProvider (ArrayCollection) by this code
myList.dataProvider.addItem(new Action());
the new item tooks the same data from its previous item.

In Flex I can create an ItemRenderer to represent each item in the Lists DataProvider but how do I access the instance of the ItemRenderer via the DataProviders Object? Something like myList.getItemRenderer(dp.getItemAt(10));
View 2 RepliesI have a list that uses a checkbox itemrenderer. The dataprovider is a collection of people. When I load the data from a file, each list item shows the person's name (last, first -- labelFunction), and the checkbox's selected property shows the person's included property. I.e.,Smith, Doug - [x]Williams, Bob - [ ]orris, Anne - [x]However, each person also has an active property. I want to disable the checkbox for people who are inactive (meaning, "you can't include inactive people").to do the same thing in a datagrid. However, none of them work and all the checkboxes are enabled regardless of the person's active status. Here is my basic code:

dataProvider="{someProvider}"
labelFunction="peopleLabelFunction">

I want to create a list of progress bars and update the list accordingly.I have group data in an Array as
<mx:Array id="arr">
<mx:Object label="Group One" min="0" max="200" currentValue="60" />
<mx:Object label="Group Two" min="0" max="300" currentValue="50" />[code]....
The values in the array object indicate name of group,minimum,maximum and current value for the group (to be used in progressbar).I used the list with "mx.controls.ProgressBar" as itemRenderer as
<mx:List width="100%" dataProvider="{arr}"
itemRenderer="mx.controls.ProgressBar"/>
Now what I need is whenever currentValue field of Array "arr" changes i want to update the progressbar "progress" value to currentValue (where min and maximum value of progressbar are stored in Array "arr").
I've wrote a custom itemrenderer for a List component (Flex 3.5) which is a VBox with a Label and a TextArea wrapped inside. All works fine so far but I want the TextArea in the first itemrenderer to receive focus so that it instantly becomes editable when tabbing onto the List. Is that possible and if how would I achieve this?
I've already added an event listener that selects the item at index 0 but the textArea in it should also be focussed at that moment _list.addEventListener(FocusEvent.FOCUS_IN, onListFocusIn);
private function onListFocusIn(e:FocusEvent):void
{
_list.selectedIndex = 0;
}
I am using a spark list control with an itemrenderer. Whenever I set an itemrenderer's currentState, the moment I mouse out of the itemrenderer, it gets reset to its default state. How can I make an itemrenderer keep its currentState unless I explicitly tell it to change?
View 1 RepliesI am having an issue with my ItemRenderer, which I am using for a spark List. My code is the following:
I have this list:
<s:List
id="productSetList"
dataProvider="{ model.productSets }"

The thing is, if I scroll the list, and click on an item, it does not trace 'arthur' ! Why is this so ? I must trace that all the time that someone clicks in the list!
EDIT: If I remove change="model.selectSet( productSetList )" in the list, it works!! but I cannot remove that, some suggestions ? How can I switch that to another function?

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 an AdvancedDataGrid that uses HierarchicalData to display data in a tree format. For one of the columns, I'm using an AdvancedDataGridRendererProvider to conditionally display an image if certain conditions are met. I'm currently using the ToolTipManager to display additional information if the user mouses over the image.Here's what I would like to do:Instead of showing the toolTip when the user places their mouse over the image, I would like to automatically display the toolTip whenever the image is visible in the AdvancedDataGrid. If the user scrolls through the AdvancedDataGrid, the toolTip should move and follow along with its image accordingly.
Sample AdvancedDataGrid:
<mx:AdvancedDataGrid id="myAdvancedDataGrid"
displayItemsExpanded="true"

i have a spark List control. it has a dataProvider that shows reply from twitter search.i have created a function for change handler like this:
protected function list_changeHandler(event:IndexChangeEvent):void
{
ta.text = coverflow.selectedItem.title;
}
so, whenever i select each of the items in the List i will see the message(ta.text)but now, instead of me manually clicking the first time, i want it to automatically click/select the first item and see the first message(ta.text)how do i do it?
How do I identify all the display objects in the display list in ActionScript, bellow the one that I have clicked? All the other objects are shadowed by the first one. What if other objects have visible parameter as hidden?
View 1 RepliesI am trying to use the same custom renderer for all the columns in a spark DataGrid. I need to know the dataField or columnIndex based on which I can change state in my custom itemrenderer.
Earlier in mx:DataGrid, this can be achieved by extending the MXDataGridItemRenderer which implements IDropInListItemRenderer and hence dataGridListData property is available.
But using the spark DataGrid, I am extending the GridItemRenderer which DOES NOT implement the IDropInListItemRenderer and hence unable to access dataGridListData property. I have tried to write an action script class extending GridItemRenderer and implementing dataGridListData but flex throws an error in the set function of this variable.

In a Flex Mobile project I have a simple itemRenderer where I'm trying to create an "bubble" texting effect, similar to ichat or iphone (just so you get what im going for). But if the text is longer than the screen it runs off, rather than just going down a line.
If I set Group thats holding the rectangle(to create the bubble effect) and the label to 100% it works and keeps it from exceeding the list containers bounds, BUT the group is always at 100% and looks bad, I'm trying to keep the "bubble" JUST AROUND the text.
Anyway so, at the top of my itemRenderer I tried specifying:
<s:ItemRenderer xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" width="100%" height="100%">
And here's my layout I figured since msg_container has a width of 100% I was hoping bubble_lable_group would just not exceed that but...it doesnt...it just runs off. I tried setting a max width but that does not allow you to input percents. And just to say it 1 more time. I know if i set bubble_lable_group width to 100% it works, and keeps it from going off the edge, but then the rectangle "bubble" stretches all the way across and just looks bad.
<s:VGroup id="main_container" horizontalAlign="left" paddingBottom="10" paddingTop="10"
verticalAlign="top" width="100%">

I'm trying to set a specific list item in a mx combobox to have a custom item renderer, the problem is that I cannot do this via mxml, it needs to be done via actionscript at a later stage, eg: combobox gets created, combobox gets populated, user does other tasks, combobox needs to set one or more items in the combobox to have icons (via item renderer)..
I can do this via the onChange event, but it only applies the icon when the combobox is opened and there is a slight delay so you can see the icon being added.
I am working on an air-application but written in as3. How can I still display an fileSystemList-Component(flex) written in actionscript?
