I think I also had creationPolicy set to "auto" as well, for my side... I just wanted to throw my initial thoughts out there, in order to see if that could be a quick fix for you. Bottom line is, I went through the same crap myself, and after playing around with a few different settings, I finally got everything working properly. All apps that I write, make extensive use of Tab Navigators - so if there is a problem out there relating to this control, I have experienced it. Sorry if my suggestions don't help you - but the problem definitely relates to timing issues - and can eventually be fixed, if you can find out where the problem is occurring, and then forcing the DataGrid to create itself at a more appropriate time. Hope this helps a tad... Mike

You can try it out for yourself in the example.

Well, at least, it did for me - Please let me know if this fixes your problem.

All the grids are coded identically. They each have two columns, the first of which has a fixed width of 50 and the second with no fixed width. The bug is that when you click on the second tab on the first tab navigator, the grid does not obey the width setting for the first column. In the second tab navigator, it does. The difference is that the first has creationPolicy=all. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx=" http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml <http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml> "> <mx:TabNavigator width="300" height="200" creationPolicy="all"> <mx:Canvas label="Tab1"> <mx:DataGrid width="100%" height="100%"> <mx:columns> <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Name" width="50" dataField="name"/> <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Value" dataField="value"/> </mx:columns> </mx:DataGrid> </mx:Canvas> <mx:Canvas label="Tab2"> <mx:DataGrid width="100%" height="100%"> <mx:columns> <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Name" width="50" dataField="name"/> <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Value" dataField="value"/> </mx:columns> </mx:DataGrid> </mx:Canvas> </mx:TabNavigator> <mx:TabNavigator width="300" height="299"> <mx:Canvas label="Tab1"> <mx:DataGrid width="100%" height="100%"> <mx:columns> <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Name" width="50" dataField="name"/> <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Value" dataField="value"/> </mx:columns> </mx:DataGrid> </mx:Canvas> <mx:Canvas label="Tab2"> <mx:DataGrid width="100%" height="100%"> <mx:columns> <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Name" width="50" dataField="name"/> <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Value" dataField="value"/> </mx:columns> </mx:DataGrid> </mx:Canvas> </mx:TabNavigator> </mx:Application> -- Jason -- Jason
