Flex :: Linking DataProvider With Custom ItemRenderer In A DataGrid?
Mar 11, 2010
Im working at a DataGrid which has a custom itemRenderer with a checkbox and a Label inside. Im struggling adding the the values from a xml to the wright label dynamically... how can I make the connection from the datagrid's dataProvider (a xml doc) to the label and the checkbox? My itemRenderer loks a following:
I have posted two problems with a custom itemRenderer see this post. My primary Problem is, that it always selects a wrong line (one under the one I select). I now realized that this happens, when I save back the content of the itemRenderer to the dataProvider. If I code this part out, the dataGrid works as expected...
A combo box as an item renderer for a data cell in a Flex Datagrid has been demostrated at various blogs. What if that combo box has to have an external dataprovider that has to be set at the time of converting the renderer class to a ClassFactory.
I'm having an issue with a custom ItemRenderer I've written for a DataGrid. With this ItemRenderer, it's possible that the contents could exceed the width and height of the DataGrid cell - and when this happens, scroll bars appear, letting me scroll the individual cell.What I would like, however, is that when the contents of the cell are too large, the entire DataGrid scrolls, rather than the individual cells.
Now, when I set the custom ItemRenderer's horizontal and vertical scroll bar policies to "off", I get the vertical scrolling on the DataGrid that I want (the individual cells stretch to accommodate the full height of the contents) but I don't get any horizontal scrolling. Instead, any content too wide for the cell is clipped. Incidentally, setting the DataGrid's horizontal scroll bar policy to "on" has no effect, the scroll bar gutter is drawn, but nothing scrolls Is there a way to force the DataGrid to scroll horizontally when my custom ItemRenderer's contents are too wide for the cell?
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));
I've added an eventListener to the COLLECTION_CHANGE event that is fired when the grid is finished resorting the items in its dataProvider, after the user clicks on a column header:MyType (myDataGrid.dataProvider).addEventListener(CollectionEvent.COLLECTION_CHANGE,onDataGridResort);
Both have single columns. Selecting one item from Divsions datagrid should display members of that Division in the Members datagrid. But following code has some problem and Members of a particular division do not show up when respective Divsion is clicked.
Following are some snippets of the related code. Hope someone can spot an error in it.
I 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.
// Sample itemRenderer used for mx:DataGrid [Working Code] <fx:Script> <![CDATA[ import mx.events.FlexEvent;
Objective:I would like to pass Skins to an itemRenderer (which is a Button) of a List, and be able to skin every button in that List.This is what I have:
For poor performance reasons, the DataGrid will cache checkboxes and reuse them for different rows. If you have 50 rows, it won't create 50 checkboxes. It will create as many checkboxes at are visible, plus a few more for padding, and then reuse them as you scroll. This is why you need to explicitly manage their state. How can improve it ? How can fixed checkbox value ? i used checkbox like below But checkbox doesnot remembering the values
What is itemRenderer in Flex? What is data linking in Flex? After writing the MXML when we do compile, what does the MXML turn into before it is displayed to the user as SWF. SWC and RSL? Whats the difference.
i am working on an aplication using flex,adobe air...i have a datagrid with a XML as my dataprovider...during the execution of program my XML is updated....after XMl is updated and saved my datagrid should also get update..I have used Dataprovidername.refresh() method but it is not working.
I'm trying to get this code working: <mx:DataGrid x="359" y="221" width="623" height="176"> <mx:dataProvider> <fx:Object name="Garbage Collection" code="7777" hours="2"/> <fx:Object name="Road Repair" code="8888" hours="6"/> <fx:Object name="Lawn Maintenance" code="9999" hours="12"/> [Code] ..... I even don't have the header text in my columns.
There are several ArrayCollections and DataGrid in my application. Number of ArrayCollections determined by the input data. How to create own dataprovider for each DataGrid column?
I create a DataGrid to display a XML file and I have used XMLListCollection before. But when I modified the XML file, the DataGrid does NOT refresh itself automatically. I googled for this problem and found these links: refresh flex dataGrid
I have a main datagrid, and want to launch a window with another datagrid in it, bringing in a different dataprovider. However, when I do this it acts funnny, brings in some default datagrid information and then gives me an error when I try to set the dataprovider:"multiple initializers for property dataprovider. (note: 'dataprovider' is the default property of mx.controls.datagrid)"
i have a method with brings data of particular table, as given my parameter to that method,
now i want to fetch data from corresponding table and it too list, and send back flex and form dynamically Grid & add dataprovider dynamically as for its corresponded table colomns in flex side ?
Now i want this create a Datagrid in flex dynamically by using its design & master data table in action script i done everyting , my dataGrid had formed as for his master design,but data is not showing ?
My Flex datagrid automatically scrolls to the top when I update the dataProvider (ArrayCollection). I do not want this to happen, but I still want all of the objects to update. I am developing a semi-real time dashboard for a customer's management system, that will update often. If it scrolls to the top every time it updates, it will be very difficult and frustrating to use.I've attempted to use the following techniques to prevent this, none have worked.
I've attempted to dispatch a mouse event to hold the vertical scrollbar in place, I've attempted to lock the vertical scrollbar position value in place (saving and reassigning)..
I need to display DropDownLists in a column of a DataGrid in my Flex application. Here is what I am doing:
First, I have a item renderer function that creates a custom item renderer, and passes it a property that is an IList that will be used as the dataProvider of the dropDownList:
private function rendererFunction(item:Object):ClassFactory { var itemRenderer:ClassFactory = new ClassFactory(AudActionDropDownIR); itemRenderer.properties = {AudActionData: AudActionData};
[Code]....
First, how can I call the init function when the renderer is created? Second, when I set the column's itemRendererFunction="rendererFunction", the app will not launch, a white screen comes up. But when I set itemRenderer="components.AudActionDropDownIR", the app will launch, but of course there is no data in the dropdown list.
Is it possible to put an itemrenderer on the DataGrid itself rather than a datagridcolumn? I could only find examples for datagridcolumn. I want a generic itemrenderer on all the items in a datagrid...
i used iteamreander in datagrid . if i select checkbox in grid automatically select another checkbox why? plz explain My xml data is more then 50 records.
I have an AC with several questions and assoicated answers. These must be shown in a DG, and the idea is that the rows and colums of the DG are bound to the AC. For example, if the answer to question1 is Yes, the Yes-button must be true, and both the others must be false (as in normal radiobuttongroup behaviour). But when I change a button by clicking it, the actions datafield of the AC should change accordingly. Am I clear enough here?
It is ment for dynamic questionnaires.

The flex DataGrid colums are arranged alphabetically by default. I need to order the DataGrid colums as per the order in its dataProvider. The dataprovider is the result of the HTTPService . And the number of columns is not known to us . The number of columns depends on the HTTPService result.
I have a flex datagrid. it is bound to an array collection. if the user sorts on column X it works fine. then, if the user causes the array collection to change, the datagrid forgets that it was sorted on column X.what do I need to do to preserve this sort preference so that the new array data will appear sorted by column X?
I have a DataGrid component that displays a few columns of data. It has one additional column that displays a Button that allows the user to take an action with regard to the record. [code]...
I have button like random click ,if i click this button then will select 15 checkbox within datagrid itemrenderer checkbox But i can't access the checkbox ? please refer me ? How can access the checkbox ?
I'm trying to reach the dataField of a DataGridColumn in the itemRenderer. Below is the dataGrid:
<mx:Script> <![CDATA[ [Bindable] public var weeksOfMoth:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([
[code].....
In the set data function of the itemRenderer, I receive an entire week (which is ok), but the itemRenderer doesn't know which day to use because the dataField is unknown. Does anyone know how to reach this dataField in the itemRenderer?
I have a Datagrid with an ItemRenderer assigned to a column which is a Currency column(String). The renderer is mean to display the Flag of the currency eg; for USD it should display a USD flag image etc. At the moment the column is appearing Blank without an image. I have the following renderer (which extends UIComponent). I am dynamically loading the images in the commitProperties() method. At the moment I have hard-coded it to the USD image to get it to work
public class CenteredEmbedImage extends UIComponent implements IListItemRenderer,IDropInListItemRenderer { private var _loader:Loader;
