Hello, I used a custom cell renderer in my datagrid. Try to trace the behaviour of the setValue method. I saw that it is called a lot of time when the mouse moves above the datagrid. Also if you use the label functions try to trace the behaviour.
I used the datagrid to display thousands of records, using label functions and custom cell renderers. I hoped the datagrid will be improved in Flex 2.0. Someone has an idea about the date of the next release ?
