Thanks Jesse. What do you mean by make the events bubble? I know I can do listOwner.dispatchEvent - it's what I'm doing now - but is there a better way than accessing the listOwner? By better I mean accessing the listOwner's method feels wrong somehow ...
I tried using editField but it causes all items in the list to get updated, or at least all cellrenderers get their setValue called. Instead, I'm accessing listOwner.getItemAt(getCellIndex().itemIndex)[getDataLabel()] to write values. Then I'm triggering the change event through dispatchEvent. That works and avoids the multiple calls to setValue. Do you see any issues with that?

So, if you do this.listOwner; that's the DataGrid. You can either dispatch events and make them bubble, or dispatch them from the DataGrid's scope; listOwner.dispatchEvent. Additionally, if you want to update the dataProvider's data, easiest way is to use editField. For example, if your cell renderer has a CheckBox in it, in the click event, you could do: var lbl:String = getDataLabel(); var index:Number = getCellIndex().itemIndex; listOwner.editField ( index, lbl, my_ch.selected); _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list [email protected] http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
