its expecting a uint, so converts string ("Red") to a uint (zero)

This code will trace out a number 16777215 btu no color in cells.

But:
this.getTextField().backgroundColor = "Red";
if (this.getTextField().backgroundColor != null)
trace(this.getTextField().backgroundColor);

will output 0.

BTW, I am using this renderer for ADG column.

Thanks

Try skipping setStyle:

this.getTextField().backgroundColor = 0xFFA500;


If that doesn’t work, there might be other code that removes backgrounds
when a renderer so the highlights for rollover show through.   Check the
base class for logic that does that.

Try removing the quotes around the color value.

I am using a label for my custom renderer:

override public function set data(value:Object):void
{
super.data = value;
if (value != null)
{
this.getTextField().background = true;
this.getTextField().setStyle("backgroundColor", "0xFFA500");
}
}
private function getTextField():*
{
return textField;
}

But I see no color.

Thanks
