Maybe set backgroundAlpha="0"? Tracy

I have an editable DataGrid that displays usernames and masked passwords (********). To hide the password, I'm just using an inline item renderer: <mx:DataGridColumn dataField="password" headerText="Password" editorDataField="text" rendererIsEditor="true"> <mx:itemRenderer> <mx:Component> <mx:TextInput displayAsPassword="true" borderStyle="none"/> </mx:Component> </mx:itemRenderer> </mx:DataGridColumn> This works exactly how I want it to, with very little code...except it doesn't look too hot when that row is selected: the TextInput always has a solid white background whether it's selected or not. Is there an easy way to tell it to make it not show a background except when selected (appear like the default item editor)? I've listened to the various edit events but can't figure out a clean way of doing this. Thanks!
