Hi Michael,
Thanks for the info, I was actually getting confused with allthe various event
names. You are correct, there is no MenuEvent.MENU_CLICKevent which probably
explains the compiler error.
I tried to use MenuEvent.MENU_CLICK after reading the blogtutorial. I believe
using “menuClick” in the MXML works becausethe custom datagrid obj.
that was used has metadata tag at the top of the classdefinition that specifies
a new event, named “menuClick” that isfor all MenuEvents.
[Event(name="menuClick",type="mx.events.MenuEvent")]
Public class CustomDataGrid extends mx.controls.DataGrid
{
Public function CustomDataGrid():void{ super();}
}
However, trying your suggestion I changed
MenuEvent.MENU_CLICK to MenuEvent.ITEM_CLICKin the AS I started getting runtime
errors. Saying
Error 1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convertmx.events.ListEvent to
mx.events.MenuEvent
I’m sending this back out to the flexcoders community toget their input
as well. I appreciate your assistance.

There is not eventMenuEvent.MENU_CLICK for MenuEvent, there is
aMenuEvent.ITEM_CLICK.
this.mycustomdg.addEventListner(MenuEvent.MENU_CLICK, handleMenuEvent);

Hi Flexcoders,
I'm having trouble with some advanced features of flex that involve
events,custom datagrid components, and item renderers. Basically, I've
beenfollowing along "Thanks Mister" blog which shows how to bubble anevent to a
parent control. In the blog tutorial, there is a list control,and one of the
columns has a button, so when a user clicks the button a menuappears, and then
which ever menu item is selected by the user triggers a newevent to be
dispatched and bubbled up to the parent control.

In my situation….
1.) I have a customDataGrid object, which has metadata tag:
[Event(name="menuClick",type="mx.events.MenuEvent")]
2.) I have acustom datagrid ItemRenderer, that knows how to bubble up the
menu event to theparent custom datagrid control
3.) There is an eventhandler function inside the mxml file that has an
instance of the datagridobject.
My Problem:
For some reason when I use mxml to connect the event handler function withthe
custom datagrid control I can get that to work; however, when I try to useAS I
get a compile Error 1119: Access of possibly undefined propertyMENU_CLICK
through a reference with a static type Class.
Here is the mxml that works:
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
public function initApp():void {}
public function
handleMenuEvent(event:MenuEvent):void
{ Alert.show("menu Event");}
]]>
</mx:Script>
<local:CustomDataGrid id="mycustomdg" menuClick="handleMenuEvent(event)"/>
Here is the AS that does *not* work, I put this inside the initApp()function
and I get a compiler error, 1119:
this.mycustomdg.addEventListner(MenuEvent.MENU_CLICK, handleMenuEvent);
I've tried looking at the flex coder archives, and the only related thread
Ifound was here:

Thanks for all of your help!
