Flex :: Extending DataGridColumn For Custom Sorting Function
Aug 25, 2009
I extended the DataGridColumn because I wanted to include a custom itemToLabel function (to be able to show nested data in the DataGrid. See this question.
Anyways, it also needs a custom sorting function. So I have written the sorting function like so:
private function mySortCompareFunction(obj1:Object, obj2:Object):int{
var currentData1:Object = obj1;
var currentData2:Object = obj2;
[Code].....
Whenever I try to sort the column, I get the error "Error: Find criteria must contain at least one sort field value."
When I debug and step through each step, I see that the first few times, the function is being called correctly, but towards the end, this error occurs.

I have a DatagridColumn in flex with two names, TYPE and NAME. Now, when I am sorting a datagridcolumn, TYPE, it sorts the type using sortcomparefunction and gives the result which contains grouped and sorted order of elements. Ex. if I sort for type I get elements in pdf, doc, ppt in grouped order, but they are internally not sorted, ex: for the pdf part, I have elements such as:
TYPE NAME
pdf A1.pdf
pdf X2.pdf
pdf B1.pdf
Here the filetypes are sorted, but for a particular filetype, the elements are not, please notice that B1 occurs after X2, which should be sorted. Is there a way I can sort the second datagridcolumn after sorting the first one according to filetype extensions? I am using sortcomparefunction for sorting the elements according to type , which works fine. The signature is:
private function sortTheTypeColumn(itemA:Object, itemB:Object):int

I have a datagrid that I want to add a column of radio button using AS3 (instead of mxml). I was able to do this with a custom itemRenderer.
var dgc:DataGridColumn = new DataGridColumn();
dgc.itemRenderer = new ClassFactory(com.mypackage.RadioBtnColumnItemRenderer);
In my RadioBtnColumnItemRenderer.mxml, I have a box with a radioButton... like so:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Box xmlns:mx="[URL]" horizontalAlign="center" verticalAlign="middle">
<mx:RadioButton id="btnRadio" groupName="btnRadioSelect"/>
</mx:Box>
When I run the application, the radio button shows up in the column as it should. However, I cannot select just ONE of the radio buttons. I am able to select all of them, but I don't want this... I want the ability to select one and then if I select another one, then the first one is unselected and the current one becomes selected (just like you would expect radio buttons to work).

Is there anyway to create a custom item editor based on the dataField value? For example:

I'm trying to create a custom sort function. This function will sort the pegs in a certain row by their row number (0: lowest -- numRows - 1: highest)For context, here is Adobe's description for the Array sort method: http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/Array.html#sort()
My array-building function:
Code:
public function getPegsInRow(row:int):Array
{
var pegRowArray:Array = new Array()
for(var i:int = 0; i < pegArray.length; i++)
[code]....
Unfortunately, the array does not get sorted correctly.

I am following this page to create a custom preloader extending Sprite to load an animation SWF, but it is not working (the animation SWF is not displaying): [URL]. I know the Animation.swf file is okay, because if I load it into the main app it displays and runs. The preloader works if an image is loaded by the preloader instead of the animation SWF.
test.mxml (main app)
BTW, I typically have many more lines of ComboBox in the app to force the preloader to display, but limiting number of lines here.
CustomPreloaders.SparkAnimationProgressBar.as
package customPreloaders {
import flash.display.;
import flash.events.;
import flash.net.;
import flash.utils.;

I'm extending the Flex 3 panel component. I need to figure out the width of the title's text. Because, title is a private variable in panel, I can't access it via title.width.I know the font, fontsize (14), and length of the title (which will vary). Knowing this info is there a way to calculate how many pixels wide the title is?

Here are the strings this array can contain (in the correct order):
'recipients,' 'columnSelector,' 'headerImageLink,' 'title,' 'mainText,' 'text,' 'bodyImage'
Now, to sort them, I obviously don't want to do something like this:
if( a == 'columnSelector' && b == 'headerImageLink' ) return -1;
else if( a == 'columnSelector' && b == 'title' ) return -1;
else if( a == 'columnSelector' && b == 'mainText' ) return -1;
So that brings up an interesting thing. I know you can optimize the above some using something like this:
if( a == 'columnSelector' || a == 'bodyImage' ) return -1;
This would get the last two, but lately I have just wanted community input on issues I have had in the past. So the question is, what is the best way to write a custom sort, using a relatively random order (not alphabetical, etc)?

The sorting capabilities that are available in Flex assume that you have access to all the data, but I'm using a paginated datagrid (with custom code), the datagrid is binded to an ArrayCollection instance, on the next page call I change the data of the dataprovider and everything works ok, but for sorting I need to override the click or event better override the sort method of the arraycollection
All this is to be able to do a server-side sorting.

I made the transition to AS3 two years ago, but I still carry with me old AS2 habits. Could someone please help me understand how I extend a custom class correctly. I have the bad habit of putting most of my code in one .as file (the Document class), but I use a few custom classes now and then. What I'm tring to figure out is how I would extend a class of this type:
public class ClipDragger {
private var _clip:MovieClip;
public function ClipDragger(clip:MovieClip) {
_clip = clip;
[code]....
For example I would like to add a MOUSE_MOVE listener, and also add actions to the drag function.

I'm doing a project where I manually create sorting algorithms.After several tests I found out that my heapsort is way quicker than quicksort (I think it should be the other way around), my selection sort is also faster than insertion sort.I'm testing using integers from -100 to 100, randomly generated, 5000 values in an array (I modified this number several times, still the same problems).My quicksort isn't in-place.I thought that maybe flash's recursive functions are slow? my heapsort uses loops, unlike quicksort. That's just a hypothesis though. I start a timer, run the class's exec() function, stop the timer and calculate the elapsed time.[code]

this cursor follow works in a single frame on the main timeline with a stop action :
// kisses start and follow cursor
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, start_kisses);
function start_kisses(event:Event) {
staged_kiss_mc.x = stage.mouseX;
[code]....
How can this same function be called in various frames throughout the main timeline? For instance, say the above code is on frame one and the "staged_kiss_mc" is extended from frames 1 to 10. On all frames there is also a stop action (along with additional code, content, etc.)How can the function "start_kisses" be activated on each of the 10 frames in the same way it is on frame 1 ?Is it necessary to add a new Event Listener? Do new functions need to be coded for each frame, such as start_kisses1, start_kisses2, etc.? --Or can the same original function be reused?
