Hi All, Before I dive in, I'd like to make not that this thread is sort of a continuation on:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/message/33238?l=1 I'm looking at binding some container widths to the widths of my individual DataGrid columns. I'm putting a drop down box above each datagrid column which when changed, changes the content for that column. Hopefully you get the picture. Anyway, I've come up against some difficulties in making the containers that house my comboboxes the same width as the datagrid column they represent. I've tried the following: 1) Tried setting the width property on my container to width="{myGrid.columns[X].width}" and of course I get the usual warning that "Data binding will not be able to detect changes when using square bracket operator. For Array, please use ArrayCollection.getItemAt() instead." Fair enough... gues that won't work. 2) Tried casting wrapping myGrid.columns in an ArrayCollection like so: width="{DataGridColumn(ArrayCollection(grid.columns).getItemAt(1)).width}" and I end up with a run-time error stating: "Type Coercion failed: cannot convert [EMAIL PROTECTED] to mx.collections.ArrayCollection." So obviously ArrayCollection doesn't like the DataGridColumns that make up my array. So I've written a function to run on the columnStretch/resize event for my datagrid which manually updates the widths of my containers which house my comboboxes. BUT... I'd rather get the binding to work... any suggestions? Thanks in advance, Brendan ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Get to your groups with one click.
