View 3 RepliesI'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 the following datagrid:
<mx:DataGrid id="question" x="9" y="289" width="100%" height="54" visible="{false}" >
<mx:columns>
<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="ans1" headerText="ans1"/>[code]..........
I need to access the data pointed by the dataField, and bind it to a label, but i don't known how to get it.
<s:Label id="debug" x="575" y="106" width="56" height="35" text="{data_from_coloumn_grid_ans1}" />
The question seems to be simple, however it create problems for me. I have a dataGrid with two dataFields: peerID, name. The information in a grid updated dynamically when new user joined the group (I'm creating a chat). I need that information about user deleted from a grid after it's disconnect. So, on "NetGroup.Neighbor.Disconnect": event i want to compare "event.info.peerID" value with all peerID values in a grid and delete info about disconnected user.
I'm trying to use next construction:
for (var i:uint, len:uint = txtDataArray.length; i < len; i++)
{
if (txtDataArray.source[i] == event.info.peerID)
{
[code]....
But it doesn't work at all!
I'v noticed that construction txtDataArray.source[i] (or txtDataArray.getItemAt(i) ) returned [object GridColumn] insead of value. So, I have two questions:
1) How to get the value of exact cell?
2) How to organized info delete after user disconnect?
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.
I'm using a custom component CheckBoxList DataGrid (http://blogs.adobe.com/aharui/2008/02/checkbox_selection_in_datagrid.html) and as dataProvider I have an ArrayCollection with items such this one:
name="item name" selected="true"
I would like the CheckBox list updated when the selected attribute is set to false or true in the data model.
I can't seem to get this right and everything I read is kind of like my problem but not quite. This seems like it would be pretty easy. All I want to do is set the value of a datafield using a function. I call in an xml file and can set the value of a datafield from that xml (in this case it's a category id as a number). But then I want to translate that number into a name by correlating it with a different data array.
so basically i just need to pass the catId into a function in the datafield but can't get it to work.
<mx:DataGridColumn color="0x00101F" textAlign="center" editable="true" id="categoryField" headerText="CATEGORY" dataField="getCategoryName(@catId)" editorDataField="text"></mx:DataGridColumn>

how to concate two datafield in a datagridcolumn?
View 2 Replies[code]I am trying to define a DataGrid such that the row nodes will represent new rows in the DataGrid and the column nodes will be used to auto-populate the DataGrid's columns. I am having a problem setting the dataField for each of the DataGridColumn ojects created.The DataGrid is created but the cell values for row 1 are all 0.51 and row 2 are 0.61.
View 1 RepliesI have an advanced data grid in flex (flash builder 4). It's dataProvider is pointing to an ArrayCollection (this._encounters). Inside that array collection is a property that is an object (a client object).
I tried setting the dataField to "clientObj.firstName" to refer to the first name property within the clientObj property of the this._encounters array collection. It did not show anything. So, I added a labelFunction to that column (code below) to set the text in the cell. This works fine and now I have values showing in the grid.
The problem is now when I click the title of column to sort it. It throws an error that property clientObj.firstName is not found in my array collection!So, is there a better way to set the dataField / source for a column and point at a property in a sub-object -- or a way to fix the sort?
Below the first column
<mx:AdvancedDataGrid x="0" y="25" id="adgEncounters" designViewDataType="flat" width="100%" height="100%" dataProvider="{this._encounters}">
<mx:columns>
<mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn headerText="first" dataField="clientObj.firstName"
[code]....
In the mxml above, this is the changed line - notice the stringSortByField added:
<mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn headerText="first" dataField="clientObj.firstName" sortCompareFunction="{stringSortByField('clientObj','firstName')}" labelFunction="encounterGridLabelFunct"/>
If it were a numeric field use the numericSortByField. If it were a date string from a database, use the dateSortByField function instead.
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);
View 1 RepliesI am working on a problem since a week soon, but I still couldn't make it work as expected. I have a DataGrid which has HBox with a CheckBox an a Label as itemRenderer (see Code below). When I tap in to the Cell the standard itemEditor pops up and lets you enter the content of the label. Thats the standard behavior. I works fine except for 2 problems:
If I enter to much text, the horizontal srollbar pops up, and the cell is filled with that scrollbar. As you see I tried to set the horizontalScrollPolicy to off, but that doesnt work at all... I tried to do that for all the different elements, but the failure is still existent. When I have filled more than one row, there is an other mistake happening. If I tap on a row, the datagrid selects the one below that row. That's only if one line is already selected. If I tap outside the datagrid and then, tap at any row the itemEditor of the right row will show up... Is there anything now wright in the setup of my set data method?

How to turn Flex MXML DataGrid into something like Horisontal DataGrid? (may be some how with Flash builder 4?)

I have two datagrids:
- Division
- Members
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.
[Code]..
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

I am having trouble parsing some xml that has a few attribute names with : characters in them. The compiler is not throwing any errors and when I trace my complete xml object out it is all there, however when I try to trace out any element or node it keeps comming up undefined. I removed the attribute names with : characters in them and everything works fine. I cant seem to target the attributes either to delete them.

I have this variable in Model class:[code]I've used BindingUtils to get notified when the XML changes:[code]Function onChange gets triggered when I assign an XML to the variable, but not when I change some attribute of the XML: Model.getInstance().someXml.@attr = "newValue";
View 1 RepliesI wish to extract an attribute from an XMLList and assign it to a string. Here is the snippet of the XML
<node>
<sport GAME="Squash" TIME1="2" TIME2="3" TIME3="8"/>
<sport GAME="Table Tennis" TIME1="4" TIME2="6" TIME3="7"/>
</node>
I have two variables. One variable will contain the game type, either Squash or Table Tennis. The other will contain one of the following strings "TIME1", "TIME2" or "TIME3". The variables are called game and time. I have tried many variations on the code below to get the needed attribute but with no joy.
var result:String = node.sport.(@GAME == game).(attribute(time));

Flex has an issue with hyphens in xml. I need to generate an xml object with hyphens in the attribute for a Google Checkout implementation.
I can get away with:
var xml:XML = <item-description/>;
and
var xml:XML = <item-description the-name="foo"/>;
but what I need to do is set the value of an attribute like this:
var timestamp:String = methodToGetMyTimestampString();
var xml:XML = <item-desc/>;
xml@start-date = timestamp;
but I can't do that. Since flex doesn't like the hyphens, I don't know how to get or set attributes with hyphens in the name.

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to create a button skin, where i can set fillColors like in a Flex 3 button, using CSS. It was easy to set the color of the gradients, by reading them from the CSS: adding a few lines in updateDisplayList: fillGradient1.color = fillColors[0]; ...
How can i set the colors for the other states, from script? I tried adding fillGradient1.color.down = fillColors[2] and it's not working...
have an RSS feed, within Flex I have connected to the feed via HTTPService, the XML structure is as follows (not exact, but for the purpose of the question). I am able to walk down the xml and access the data within the title and link nodes with success but when I get the the description node and try to access the img and src attributes within it, I haven't had any success. Reading about parsing with e4x the example I get is:
var xList:XMLList = xData.channel.item.description.(attribute("src"));
or
var xList:XMLList = xData.channel.item.description.(@src);
[code]......
For example
i want to change
<item id="1"/>
to
<item code="1"/>
What is the best method to test the existence of an attribute on an XML object in ActionScript 3 ttp://martijnvanbeek.net/weblog/40/testing_the_existance_of_an_attribute_in_xml_with_as3.html is suggesting to test using
if ( node.@test != node.@nonexistingattribute )
and I saw comments suggesting to use:
if ( node.hasOwnProperty('@test')) { // attribute qtest exists }
But in both case, tests are case sensitiveFrom the XML Specs : "XML processors should match character encoding names in a case-insensitive way" so I presume attribute name should also be match using a case-insensitive comparison.
I am attempting to style the headers in a flex datagrid and I keep getting the warning:
Type DataGrid in CSS selector 'DataGrid' must be qualified with a namespace
What does this mean? I have gone through a bunch of tutorials and none of them have worked. It seems like changing a the colors in a datagrid should be relatively simple.
Here is a code sample:
<mx:Style>
.headerCustomStyle
{
fontWeight: "bold";
