Disable editing of column in advanceddatagrid

Question

I'm having problems disabling editing in the advanced
datagrid The code for the column is below. It is using an
itemRender. I wouldn't think this would be the problem, but perhaps
I need to disable it at the item renderer level and not the
datagrid. Any ideas?
<mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn width="10" id="DGColumn_X"
editable="false" visible="true" sortable="false" headerText="X"
dataField="hasPermission" itemRenderer="mx.controls.CheckBox"
/>

It looks like the class you are losing doesn't support what you are trying to do; you can only toggle whether columns are sortable on a global basis. At least, that's my impression after looking at the first API which Google coughed up for that class.
I guess you could turn the sorting on/off depending upon which column is clicked, though I'm not sure how well that will work.
The columnMoved should be called when columns are moved from one index to another. The event will have a 'from' and a 'to' index on it.
I think you may want to try using a mouse listener on the TableHeader, figure out the column that we clicked on, and then act accordingly:
        JTableHeader tableHeader = table.getTableHeader();
        tableHeader.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter() {
            public void mousePressed(MouseEvent event) {
                JTableHeader header = (JTableHeader) (event.getSource());
                int index = header.columnAtPoint(event.getPoint());
                // do stuff based on index
        });You may want to play with that, as I'm not sure how it will work with that class, particularly as I assume it toggles sorting through ascending, descending, no sorting.
