I'm reorganizing the data, and, for efficiency, I'd like to do so in

One of your problems might be that you're using a grouping grid. I
tested an ADG with 5,000 rows, and the grouping version took a huge

I want an AdvancedDataGridColumn to have word wrap, soI set the

renders an mx:Label, which contains the actual text. But that text
doesn't wrap.

Another old question, I'm sure, but I can't find an answer anywhere on

How do I cause a row to be selected in an AdvancedDataGrid? Basically,
when a top-level element is clicked, I want all of its child elements
to be selected.
I would like to make an AdvancedDataGrid where the rows with a depth of
0 (or a particular RendererProvider, if you prefer), have no select
color. That is, you can click on them and activate click events, but
they never turn blue. How do I do this?
Thanks
Let's say I have a single column which contains an image and some text.
Then I get a click event from the AdvancedDataGrid. How do I tell
whether the image was clicked, rather than the text?
My grid uses a HierarchicalData dataProvider, which points to a
subclass of ArrayCollection. The dataProvider is declared Bindable. The
data is an ArrayCollection of arrays.
I create a single top-level node, and then create 5000 child nodes. If
the top-level node is collapsed, it takes about 4

far.
So how do I make the group name span all five columns, giving it enough
