Try running your sizing logic with callLater().

Extremely helpful. Here is the latest: I have a class that extends datagrid. In it I've added a method that resized the columns based on calculations of the length of the data within each column. When the datagrid is first displayed the columns are not the correct size. After it initially appears if I refresh the data (via my own button), etc. the code fires and resized just fine but the very first time it does not. I've tried unsuccessfully to add various event listeners (such as Event.COMPLETE) to the datagrid class. Is there some method that I should be overwriting? GP
