Flex :: Manually Resizing Datagrid - Keep The Column Widths Reasonable?

Oct 27, 2011

Whenever you resize a datagrid by hand (not via code), the last column seems to retain most of the width. What's worse, whenever you extend it and shrink it to a large degree, the other columns can get smushed. Here's a perfect example: The ideal solution would distribute width equally or in proportion to the length of the text. In addition, if would avoid covering text when it's not necessary. Now, setting the width to 0.5 in the example above does seem to alleviate the issue, but not prevent it entirely. What I'd also like to know if there are any well polished, custom datagrids out there that solve this. From trying to find a solution, I suspect the only solutions available are more ad-hoc.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Dynamic Datagrid Column Widths?

Nov 9, 2005

Has anyone coded a datagrid component so that the column widths adjust to match the length of the longest element in each one? I know how to set the width of a column to a specific pixel value, but how to go about calculating the width required for each cell? Obviously this depends on font choice and the number of characters I'm trying to display.

Flex :: Flash - DataGrid Column Width: One Column To Rule Them All?

Nov 16, 2010

I have a Flex 4, mx:DataGrid with the following (pertinent) properties set:

width="100%"horizontalScrollPolicy="off"

I have the minWidth set on all of the DataGridColumns and the width set on one of them. If I simply maximize/minimize the display (in browser or stand-alone flash player) of the application, the columns scale up and down nicely. But if you grab the edge of the application and drag it to make it bigger, only one column grows really big. When you drag the size down again, the one column remains big, but all of the other columns get squished way down.

Flex :: Select A Column In Its Datagrid?

Sep 30, 2009

In a flex datagrid, by default clicking on column headers does sorting. I want it such that if a user clicks a column header the entire column is selected. I have the datagrid listening for the HEADER_RELEASE event so I know when the column header is clicked.

How can I have the column and header appear highlighted similar to how a row is highlighted when selected?

Flex :: Datagrid Tab To Checkbox Column

Apr 15, 2012

Context: I have a data grid where the following has been implemented. tabbing through each column in a single row and creating a new row when tabbing from the last column. The last column in my datagrid is now a checkbox. I set the 'editable' to false as shown below (since we don't want editable text to be shown when user clicks on/tabs to checkbox.

Problem: When I tab through the columns of a given row, I cannot tab to the checkbox column and therefore cannot use the space bar to toggle between checked/unchecked. The user is forced to use the mouse to toggle the check box. Question: How do I let user tab to the checkbox column, and press spacebar to toggle between checked and unchecked?

Flex :: How To Access Column For Particular Row In DataGrid

Apr 8, 2011

I am stuck in a problem working on Flex datagrid, in an AIR application. How can I access a specific row in datagrid in Flex. I am not talking about the selectedItem or any particular record of dataProvider of datagrid. What exactly I want to do is I am showing some files data (name, description etc.) on a datagrid, and the data of these files comes from an array which is the dataProvider of the datagrid. Now when these files are being uploaded one by one to the server (using a webservice), I want to show a ProgressBar on, say, "Progress" column in the datagrid. How can I access this column for a particular row in datagrid i.e. current file being uploaded.

Flex :: DataGrid Column Width Is Not Set Properly?

Jan 4, 2011

In the below example I has called the OptimizeDataGrid method on Button Click event to resize the Column according to the data. whereas on the First Time of the Button Click event It called the function whereas the Datagrdi Column width alone is not set properly.whereas on second time it is working properly.For Eg : In the below statement the text value is coming as 55 and widthPadding is comes as 25. but the sum of these two value is not in the dg.columns[col].width.

dg.columns[col].width = text + widthPadding;

But the same is working on the second time of the Button click event.

Flex :: Dynamically Change The Width Of Datagrid Column?

Jun 16, 2009

Can we change the width of the datagrid column dynamically by clicking on the border of the column in order to display the complete string which is too long to be displayed and needs to be scrolled ? If so, How ?

Also, how can we ensure that the column width changes dynamically based on the number of characters / length of string; since many a times the data is too long to be displayed. Can we set the column width to take the length of data into consideration before displaying onto the datagrid ?
