RE: [flexcoders] New Inline cell renderers

[Jonathan Miranda]

Well I’m closer but no cigar yet. I can get the dataProvider to update with the checkbox click, but each checkbox click requires 2 clicks! One to get focus in the box and one to actually change the checkbox…and I can’t figure out how to center the Checkbox now since it’s not in an HBox anymore.   <mx:DataGrid width="100%" height="80%" id="resultsDG" dataProvider="{searchService.result.hospitals.hospital}">             <mx:columns>             <mx:Array>             <mx:DataGridColumn editorProperty="selected" textAlign="center" columnName="compare" sortable="false" headerText="Compare" width="75" isCellEditor="true">             <mx:cellRenderer>             <mx:Component>             <mx:CheckBox selected="{dataObject.compare}"/>             </mx:Component>             </mx:cellRenderer>                                                                                            </mx:DataGridColumn>             <mx:DataGridColumn textAlign="center" cellRenderer="nameRenderer" columnName="name" headerText="Hospital Name"/>             <mx:DataGridColumn textAlign="center" columnName="distance" headerText="Distance" width="100" id="distance"/>             <mx:DataGridColumn textAlign="center" cellRenderer="swfRenderer" columnName="quality" headerText="Quality" width="100"/>             </mx:Array>             </mx:columns> </mx:DataGrid>   _________________________________________ Jonathan Miranda Flexible Master of the Web "In the game of chess, it's important to never let your opponent see your pieces."   From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Dominick Accattato Sent: Tuesday, February 07, 2006 7:02 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [flexcoders] New Inline cell renderers   There are CellRenderer's and CellEditors.  A cell renderer just adjusts the display from the default textinput to a checkbox etc... However, if you change the cellrenderer, that won't have any affect on the underlying dataprovider. You need to set the cellrenderer's isCellEditor property to true.  This will cause the cell to use the cellRenderers class as the editor class as well.  Once you have a cellEditor, you have access to the underlying dataprovider.  On 2/6/06, Jonathan Miranda <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: So I decided to mess around with the new inline cell-renderers…and having issues getting at their data. Pretty simple example… <mx:DataGridColumn textAlign="center" columnName="compare" sortable="false" headerText="Compare" width="75"> <mx:cellRenderer> <mx:Component> <mx:HBox width="100%" horizontalAlign="center"> <mx:CheckBox id="myCheckie"/> </mx:HBox> </mx:Component> </mx:cellRenderer>                                                                                </mx:DataGridColumn> So I've tried everything I think of attempting to find out if the checkbox is selected or not, using either "compare" or "myCheckie"….anyone know how? Just want a checkbox and the ability to find out by actionscript if it's checked or not (running through the whole datagrid). _________________________________________ Jonathan Miranda Flexible Master of the Web "In the game of chess, it's important to never let your opponent see your pieces."   -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com SPONSORED LINKS Web site design development Computer software development Software design and development Macromedia flex Software development best practice     YAHOO!
