No, I am saying that you would not use an itemEndEdit handler at all, but would do the item update in the renderer.
I do not know how to directly displatch that event. You might be able to change the focus off that cell and cause the event to dispatch. Or perhaps set editedItemPosition=null; Tracy ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Randy Martin Sent: Monday, October 20, 2008 11:34 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Dispatching The itemEditEnd event from within an item editor Thanks, Tracy. And you're right. I'm only using an ItemEditor. There's no custom renderer. I really don't need a custom renderer because I'm able to pass back a combination of the two selected items in the itemEditEnd event handler. Are you saying that if I used a custom renderer, I could trigger the itemEditEnd event when the selection from the 2nd combo box is made? I'll look into that, but if you have a quick example, it would save me some time.
