I tried a little test based on my suggestion where during a dg
change event i popped up the menu. the menu was populated using
event.target.selectedItem .and it works fine.
eg
<mx:DataGrid change="doChange(event)">
function doChange(event){
var myMenu = Menu.createMenu(this,null);
// populated dataprovider like in my previous post etc
}
i think your problem might be something that i was having problems
with last week. if your menu dataprovider is valid and everything
else is okay, maybe you need to wait a couple of frames before you
can show the menu. use a doLater() to show the menu.
