[flexcoders] one renderer forcing update of another
I have a datagrid with a renderer in each of 2 columns. The first column displays a combobox. When the combobox is changed on one row I want to update the data in the second column on the same row. Is there a way to do this?
[flexcoders] Combobox text does not render on some
I have form window with about 20 combobox fields. Each one is bound to a unique arraycollection which is bindable. When the window is first displayed there are 3 of the combobox firlds that do not display the text from the drop down list even though the value has been loaded correctly. As soon as I click on one of them, they all display correctly. From that point on while using the window they all work correctly as well.
[flexcoders] datagrid autoscrolls
I have a datagrid on a form with fields above and below. The datagrid displays 3 rows. I have custom renderers in the datagrid columns. When more than 3 rows exists, the datagrid will scroll when I move the cursor above or below the datagrid. When I open the combobox on the last visable row and move to the bottom of that list the datagrid autscrolls and closes the combobox list before I can make a selection.

Is there any way to setFocus in a DataGrid cell? I have tried the DataGrid.editedItemPosition property but that doesn't work.

[flexcoders] dataGrid - process each item
How can I go about processing each dataGrid item? I need to validate all items at time of update. I can walk through each item using the dataProvider but I can not find a way to know which dataGrid item to validate from just the dataProvider's information.

[flexcoders] rendererArray - How to process each renderer in a DataGrid
I need to process each renderer in a DataGrid. I have found a property - rendererArray - on the DataGrid which looks like what I need. The first array element contains the headers and the rest of the elements contain the rows of data. When I debug Flex the rendererArray is visible and has what I need, but the application errors with ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property rendererArray not found on mx.controls.DataGrid and there is no default value. Is this the way I should be processing the DataGrid renderers or is there a better way?
[flexcoders] Re: Date format - internal and external
Still need help: I have to assume that this functionality is needed all the time when using Flex with a database application. I must be overlooking the solution.

But now when I need to return the data to the server I want the raw data (unformatted) as 123.45. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, darylgmyers [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have a VO which contains a date field formatted as 2007-01-01.

[flexcoders] Re: addEventListener and additional arguments?
Gordon, I'm pretty new to Flex so I appologize for the additional question. Are you saying that I can add an instance property to the target so that it will be available in the event.target? What I'm actually doing is creating a set of form fields on the fly using action script. Some of these fields may be number types with a precision value. My formatting is done with an event listener which I need to be able to pass the precision value. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Gordon Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: There should be no need to pass additional arguments to the event handler method, because -- assuming it is indeed a method of a class -- it can access all the instance properties of that class.

[flexcoders] Best way to communicate with database
We have a web application which is built using Zope and has postgreSQL as the database backend. We are planning on adding/replacing functionality in sections with Flex 2. Over time the majority of the application will be done in Flex 2. We are trying to evaluate the many different ways we can communicate with the database - Flex Data Services, WebOrb for Ruby on Rails, Web Services we create, etc. Does anyone have advice and experience to help us make this decision? We are looking for the most efficient solution from a coding standpoint as our primary goal.
