this *should* be easy. In HTML it'd just be a colspan....anyhoo...

I've got a datagrid headerRenderer that should have the layout


 ...... Email Notifications .....

 ... Initial ...... | ..... Reminder
Notifications . | ......... Date

(the cells underneath will be custom itemRenderers I'm esentially
having 2 columns with a common parent header)

I just can't get the text to wrap. there's "truncate to fit" but no
wrap. any ideas?


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:VBox xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml";  width="150">
        <mx:Label text="Email Notifications" textAlign="center"/>
        <mx:HBox height="35" >
        <mx:Label text="Initial Notifications" textAlign="center" />
        <mx:Label text="Reminder Date" textAlign="center"/>
        </mx:HBox>
</mx:VBox>

thanx

==========================================

ALSO: I'm lost as to why I need to do this:

I can define custom components with a namespace (OK so far)
<mx:Application ...
        xmlns:my="custom_controls.*"
>
<my:ComboBox dataProvider="{colRole}" y="100"></my:ComboBox>

but I can't use that namespace for a datagrid headerRenderer control.
 - this works:
<mx:DataGridColumn headerRenderer="custom_controls.NewLabel" />
 - this doesn't
<mx:DataGridColumn headerRenderer="my.NewLabel" />

can I ask why I can't use a namespace for all my custom stuff?
thanx
b
