I have a DataGrid. In the headers of the DataGrid I have a
headerRenderer that adds a ComboBox in the header. This part is
working just fine. My question is how can I call a custom method in my
headerRenderer MXML file to change the selectedIndex of the ComboBox?
I can pass variables to the header when it creates it initially but I
need to do it after the header has been initialized.
The code that I have so far that calls the method in the headerRender
looks like this:
(myDataGrid.columns[0] as
DataGridColumn).headerRenderer.newInstance().myMethod(4);
Zero being the first column. Four being the index I want it to go to.
Inside my headerRenderer the myMethod looks like this:
public function myMethod(arg:Number):void{
myCombo.selectedIndex = arg;
}
If I trace or Alert "arg" it works just fine. But if I make it do
anything with myCombo it gives me an error.
Does anyone know how to call a method in an headerRenderer and have it
interact with the elements in the headerRenderer?
