[flexcoders] itemRenderer simple question
Hi there, I'm writing a simple itemRenderer that i want to use across multiple columns. The itemRenderer will look at a property of the data object that it receives to tell what style should be applied to the mx:Text object that will display the data. That part is easy. But how do I set the text value of the mx:Text to whatever the value of that column is? (does that make sense?) For example, if the column I'm in has a dataField property of email, I want the itemRenderer to display the value of email -- without having to write data.email in the itemRenderer. What we're really trying to do is to apply a style to the text of an entire row if one of the row's properties is true. Thanks, mark
Re: [flexcoders] itemRenderer simple question
Thanks for that. Works great.
However, I have to say, these are the kinds of things that should be
easier to accomplish.
Like maybe you should have the ability to have some variable that
represents the data that goes in a particular cell, in addition to
looking at the whole row. I dunno.
Seems like you have to go through a lot to get the simple things you
need *sometimes*.
Other things are a breeze :)
My code looks like this, btw:
package
{
import mx.controls.DataGrid;
import mx.controls.dataGridClasses.DataGridItemRenderer;
import mx.controls.dataGridClasses.DataGridListData;
import mx.controls.Text;
import mx.controls.dataGridClasses.DataGridColumn;
public class MarkyItemRenderer extends DataGridItemRenderer
{
public function MarkyItemRenderer()
{
super();
}
private var lastUID:String; // the last thing we rendered
override public function set data(value:Object):void
{
super.data = value;
if (listData listData.uid != lastUID)
{
// this is how you get at the particular column of
data
var dgListData:DataGridListData = listData as
DataGridListData;
var dataGrid:DataGrid = dgListData.owner as DataGrid;
var column:DataGridColumn =
dataGrid.columns[dgListData.columnIndex];
// checking the property to see if we should style the
text
if (value.is_admin == true) {
styleName = adminStyle;
}
//setting the text
text = data[column.dataField];
lastUID = listData.uid;
}
}
}
}

[flexcoders] programmatically adding a new column to the datagrid
Hey there, I'm adding columns to the columns array for a datagrid without any difficulty. Except for when i try to specify the Header Renderer. We're building a new column object by writing AS code like : newColumn.dataField = columnObj.dataField; newColumn.wordWrap = columnObj.wordWrap; And we push this onto the columns array and that works fine. But how do i say that i want the header renderer for the new column to be the one that's defined in cmpHeader.mxml in the current directory? Things like the following don't work: var myHeaderRenderer:DataGridItemRenderer = new DataGridItemRenderer (cmpHeader.mxml); newColumn.headerRenderer = myHeaderRenderer; -- or -- newColumn.headerRenderer = cmpheader.mxml; -- or -- newColumn.headerRenderer = cmpHeader; Thanks! marky
Re: [flexcoders] How to know the position of the column in a datagrid?
We currently have to loop through the columns array and look for the column named X. When we find it, we know what position it's in by the number of loops. If there's a better way to do this, would love to know.

[flexcoders] handling right-click on datagrid column header
Hey there, does anyone know if it's possible to handle a right-click event on just the column header in a datagrid? We're messing around with to make a datagrid work the same way the iTunes data grid works... Where you right click on one of the column headers and then pops up a modal type window that lets you select which columns to show and hide. We can't seem to figure out how to get a right-click mouse event on a datagrid column, let alone the column header. any help would be appreciated. thanks, marky

Re: [flexcoders] crossdomain.xml - is there an alternative ?
Have you tried placing the crossdomain.xml file in whatever https:// mydomain:9443/ maps its docroot to? Because that is where it will look I think. On Dec 20, 2006, at 11:33 AM, jamiebadman wrote: Hi, I'm trying to access https webservices from a flex app hosted under http and I'm getting security errors. The full error states that there's a security sandbox violation trying to access https://mydomain:9443/ccx/myservice So it would seem this could be resolved with a crossdomain.xml file placed at that location, right ? However the location doesn't actually exist on the server. the /ccx portion of the URL is to do with a product called 'Cape Clear' which manages the webservices and it would seem that requests that go into /ccx and beyond are somehow intercepted and dealt with by CapeClear. So there's actually not a physical location to place the crossdomain.xml that I can make out. I tried using the LoadPolicyFile approach to have it load the crossdomain.xml from a different location - but this didn't seem to do anything from Flex. I also tried 'allowInsecureDomain' but again, no effect. Does anyone have any suggestions - any ideas on how we can get this to work ? Thanks in advance, Jamie.
[flexcoders] scheduled functions
Hey there, Could anyone point me in the right direction with the following task: Is it possible to create events that happen at specific times while the app is running? Something like cron but for a client side flex app? Can make some function that runs in its own thread or runs in the background while that might be able to fire events based on system clock time? As an example, let's say that you are in a calendar app, and you want it to pop up an alarm at 4:15pm to alert you of a meeting? Can this be done without using a server side/FDS messaging push?

But are you using Firefox? Your issue is a fact of life in the Firefox world. You’ll notice that in Firefox, calling setFocus() off any of the initialization events will not cause the cursor to blink within the TI. Doing the same off a button click or some sort of other user initiated event will work. This is because Mozilla has some specific issues around giving plug-in content focus upon initialization.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: reorder datagrid columns
I've also needed to do this.The datagrid's "columns" property is really just an array of datagridcolumn objects i think. You can create two different arrays and make a button switch between them to see how it can change the datagrid. (Same data, just different columns.)So I was going to try to make a function that gets the results for the datagrid's data provider and also asks the server for what columns should be displayed, their width, order and such from some user preference system. But I haven't had a chance to fully work it out yet.HTHMarkyOn Oct 30, 2006, at 6:41 AM, Paul Hastings wrote:On 10/28/06, dzeitman [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: If all you want to do is organize the column order you can manually set up columns in the appropriate order.thanks but i need this "on the fly" (and i don't don't know what'sgetting sent back from the server per remote call). the trick is touse the datagrid's columns property to reorder the columns to their"natural" order. __._,_.___ -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com SPONSORED LINKS Software development tool Software development Software development services Home design software Software development company Your email settings: Individual Email|Traditional Change settings via the Web (Yahoo!
