Many thanks Alex, in fact my original thoughts worked quite well (plenty of hassle due to not knowing drag and drop at all, or data binding quite as well as I'd thought though! grrrr ), but I had considered that way of doing things.
If anyone finds this on a future search, then making a custom renderer (for the column in which you want to drag something into an existing cell) and making that a drop target does work fine (as I'd expected, just didn't have a clue as to how to actually do it). Ta for your thoughts, much appreciated. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] on behalf of Alex Harui Sent: Thu 14/02/2008 18:57 To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Drag and drop into a datagrid Cell (rather than the default, row) ? Enable drop on a row might work. I might just try handling the drop and the showDropFeedback differently. Instead of the single line, you should be able to highlight a cell and then instead of an insert to the collection, change some data in a cell. ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jim Hayes Sent: Thursday, February 14, 2008 6:33 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [flexcoders] Drag and drop into a datagrid Cell (rather than the default, row) ? Sorry to ask a basic question, but the docs, google, and searchcoders don't seem to be getting me any results so far (or my search terms are just rubbish) I'd like to be able to drag an item to a *cell* in a datagrid, the default action would seem to be that the drop adds a new row, whereas I desire the information to go into an existing cell. I have a feeling that I need to make a custom renderer for that column, and enable the drag and drop on that rather than the datagrid. Could anyone confirm/deny, offer basic guidance/direction (I'll work out the details) or even better know of an online example? Many thanks in advance, Jim. ______________________________________________________________________ This communication is from Primal Pictures Ltd., a company registered in England and Wales with registration No. 02622298 and registered office: 4th Floor, Tennyson House, 159-165 Great Portland Street, London, W1W 5PA, UK.
