Yeah, I think your could subclass it and override updateDisplayList for what
you're needing. Check this out and see if it does what you need:
package nes
{
import mx.controls.advancedDataGridClasses.AdvancedDataGridHeaderRenderer;
public class AdvancedDataGridHeaderRendererExt extends
AdvancedDataGridHeaderRenderer
{
override protected function updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth:Number,
unscaledHeight:Number):void
{
super.updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight);
graphics.moveTo(0, unscaledHeight);
graphics.lineStyle(2, 0xFF0000);
graphics.lineTo(unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight);
}
}
}
