Amy, thanks. The only difference is that I'm assigning the iconFunction in AS
like so:
adg.iconFunction = myFunction;
private function myFunction(item:Object):Class {
trace("made it this far!");
}
I get nothing. Let me look into it further. Thanks for all your help.
Brandon

The iconFunction is not ignored by the _Advanced_ Data Grid. I can
tell you this, because I use it successfully in a project I just
finished.
here's a snippet of my code
//show appropriate menu icon based on state ond
//nature of item
private function menuIcon(item: Object):Class{
if (item is TaskUID){
var taskItem:TaskUID = item as
TaskUID;
switch (taskItem.isComplet e) {
case Task.NOT_STARTED:
return icnEmpty;
case Task.STARTED:
return icnStarted;
case Task.COMPLETE:
return icnComplete;
}
} else if (item is MenuContainer) {
var containerItem: MenuContainer =
item as MenuContainer;
switch (containerItem. runMode) {
case 'Normal':
return icnNormal;
case 'Review':
return icnReview;
case 'Analysis':
return icnAnalysis;
}
}
return null;
}
The MXML looks like this:
<mx:AdvancedDataGri d id="menuADG" showHeaders= "false" width="100%"
itemRenderer= "com.magnoliamul timedia.views. ADGGroupItemRend ere
rPatch"
groupItemRenderer= "com.magnoliamul timedia.views. ADGGroupItemRe

verticalGridLines= "false"
