Flex Using Tree Control in item renderer(Url Navigate)?

HI All.,
Iam Using flex 3 using tree control in item renderer to click haschildren label to be navigate url is possible ?.
Any one help me.....
Thanks in Advance......

You can do this by writing the item's tag to the ActiveItemTag property, the column number you're intersted in to the ActiveColNum property and reading the Cell String Property.

Assuming your objects are known and what you need are simply
variable names created by the program, try using objects as
associative arrays:
var asArray:Object = new Object();
for (var n:int = 0; n < 10; n++) {
asArray["obj" + n] = new WHAT_EVER();

Using a canvas for item renderer

I have an array collection of objects. The class has a
function getDisplayObject which returns a canvas with all of the
components I need in it. I'd like to use that canvas directly as a
custom renderer for a combo box. How can I set the returned canvas
as the item renderer? I've made custom renderers, but not with a
canvas itself. I think I need to call getDisplayObject inside of
the item renderer for each object, but am not sure how. Thanks.
(Below is what I've tried, but this only adds the first one out of
an array of 5... hmm...)

Hi Usernnnnnn,
I know an applciation that's using such kind of tree.
It's published in the Oracle magazine, may 2006. And is named: Build a menu framework. You can dowload the application:

The menu looks like you have described.

How to use Tree control like a Tree in SAP HANA Live Browser?

Hello SDN!
I need a Tree control such as following:
As I understand, there is no such standard control in SAPUI5 control library. Is it possible to use this control? If yes, how I can embed it in my app?
Regards,
Lev

Hi Sandip!
Thanks for your tip. I've applied this example to my app. Tree is working now, but this is a little problem - on each expand/collapse and click on treeItem the onAfterRendering() method called. It means that the complete rerender of tree executed which looks not good. How I can avoid this?

LabVIEW 7 Tree Control - Selected Item

Hi,
Has anyone tried the new Tree control in LV7 yet? I can't seem to find a method to programatically determine what item in the tree has been selected by the user other than if the user has double clicked on the tree - can someone point me to the method? From a user interface perspective double clicking an item in a tree shouldn't be the only way to select an item and as a side effect double clicking on the LV7 tree item closes a branch if there are children under the node double clicked on, which is very undesirable when only selecting an item.
Cheers,
Wayne

WPS,
The tree control's data, which is available from its terminal, is the tag(s) of the selected item(s).

Flex - 3 Tree Control

Hi,
I have to display Tree items in clickable link item as simillar to LinkButton.
Can anyone help me plz.
Thanks!

Thanks buddy for the answer.
Unfortunately the answer came after quite long time of posting the message. Anyway I was able to open a tree on demand using HttpService and due to my new requirement I changed it to RemoteObject.
I my latest change I am able to populate tree nodes on demand and also the same solution if getting update from server via JMS using Consumer object.
I kind a like this solution because it took me good amount of effort to find the right solution.
If any one is intersted the he/she can reply to the post and I can provide code here or may at some location so that it can be easily downloaded.
The solution is Flex-Grails combination.
Thanks everybody.

Question about Using States in DataGrid Item Renderer

I have a DataGridColumn with an ItemRenderer that extends the
Box component. The default display is a Text component. When the
user clicks on the text component, I change the State to add a
PopUpMenuButton child, and make the Text component invisible. This
works fine. However, I only want to allow one PopUpMenuButton to be
visible in the DataGrid at a time (similar to how an itemEditor
works). I don't want to use an itemEditor, because I've run into
too many problems trying to get that to work in this instance.
I am implementing IDropInListItemRenderer in my itemRenderer,
in order to access the listData property, which will give me the
owner (DataGrid), but I don't know how to "turn off" the "editing"
state in other itemRenderers in the DataGrid.
How can I accomplish this?
Thanks.

Here we go. I simply added an Listener for Change Events in
the listData.owner - if it is triggered, i update the currentState
to null. Works like a charm. Much easier than trying to access the
itemRenderers in the column and resetting them all. Better on
performance too.

When to use Drop In Item renderer and InLine Item Renderers ??

Hi ,
I am getting confused in where to use Inline ItemRenderer and DropIn Item Renderer .
What i feel is that DROP in Item Renderer are easy to use , and those can satisfy any requirements .
What i read from tutorilas that we cant use Drop In because they say , The only drawback to using drop in is that them is that you cannot configure them
Please help me .

Hi Kiran,
Here is the detailed explanation you needed:
You can also refer the link below:
http://blog.flexdevelopers.com/2009/02/flex-basics-item-renderers.html
Drop-In Item Renderers
Drop-In Item Renderers are generic in nature and don't rely on specific data fields to render data. This allows them to be used with a wide range of data sets, hence, the term “drop-in”. Drop-In Item Renderers can be “dropped-in” to any list-based control regardless of the dataprovider’s data properties.
In our previous example, the employee photo property requires use of a custom Item Renderer to render properly in the UI. In this scenario the Image component satisfies our rendering needs out of the box. Implemented as a Drop-In Item Renderer, the Image component takes any data property regardless of name and uses it as the Image component's source property value. Assuming our employee photo property contains a valid image path, the Image Drop-In Item Renderer will work perfectly and resolve the image path as an image in the UI.

<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="photo"
                   headerText="Employee Photo"
                   itemRenderer="mx.controls.Image"/>
Drop-In Item Renderers are simple and easy to use and satisfy specific use cases nicely. However, they provide no flexibility whatsoever. If your needs are not satisfied by a Drop-In Item Renderer, you must create your own Item Renderer as an inline component or an external component.
Inline Item Renderers
Generally used for simple item rendering requiring minimal customization, inline Item Renderers are defined as a component nested within the MXML of your list-based control.
It is important to note that Item Renderers nested within the itemrender property of a list-based control occupy a different scope than the list-based control. Any attempt to reference members (properties or methods) of the parent component from the nested Item Renderer component will result in a compile-time error. However, references to the members of the parent component can be achieved by utilizing the outerDocument object.
<mx:DataGrid id="myGrid" dataProvider="{gridData}">
   <mx:columns>
      <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Show Relevance">
         <mx:itemRenderer>
            <mx:Component>
               <mx:Image source="{'assets/images/indicator_' + data.showRelevance + '.png'}"
                         toolTip="{(data.showRelevance == 1) ? 'On' : 'Off'}"
                         click="outerDocument.toggle()" />
            </mx:Component>
         </mx:itemRenderer>
      </mx:DataGridColumn>
   </mx:columns>
</mx:DataGrid>
Remember, rules of encapsulation still apply. Mark all properties or methods public if you want them accessible by your inline Item Renderer. In the previous example, the toggle() method must have a public access modifier to expose itself to the inline Item Renderer.
public function toggle():void
Inline Item Renderers can also be reusable by creating a named component instance outside of the list-based control. This component must have an id property and contain the rendering logic of the Item Renderer. Using data bindings, the component is assigned to the itemrenderer property of one or more data properties of a list-based control.

<mx:Component id="ImageRenderer">
   <mx:VBox width="100%" height="140"
            horizontalAlign="center" verticalAlign="middle">
      <mx:Image source="{'assets/'+data.image}"/>
      <mx:Label text="{data.image}" />
   </mx:VBox>
</mx:Component>

<mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Image"
                   dataField="image" width="150"
                   itemRenderer="{ImageRenderer}"/>
In the previous example, note that the Item Renderer component contains 2 UI controls – Image and Label. When using multiple controls within an Item Renderer, a layout container is required. In this example, a VBox was used.
If this post answers your question or helps, please kindly mark it as such.
Thanks,

Flex Mobile List Item Renderer problems

i have flex mobile list created with item renderer,i remove individual item in flex mobile list,it is worked very well,but some times i double click action or another scroll event using in list, last item doesn't delete in flex mobile list.it is repeated again and again.so anyone this problem faced,give me a solution.
i expect your feedback.Thanking You

Hi Alex,
I've searched a lot for that post (on this forum and on google). Not sure if this is the post you were talking about: http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/message/161146
I have fixed the setter of the data not to also manage the state (I figured it was inappropriate there)... overrode the getCurrentRendererState, I'm managing the state staight from the data. When I run the following... All sold items show as sold... and normal states show as normal. When I try to hover over the normal state, it dosen't play the hovered state, and when I click to the selected state. These built in states don't work.
override public function set data(value:Object):void {
     super.data = value;
     ticketNumber_ti.text = value.slots_id;
override protected function getCurrentRendererState():String {
     var state:String;
     if (data.date_purchased != null) {
          state = 'sold';
          mouseChildren = false;
          mouseEnabled = false;
     } else {
          state = 'normal';
          mouseChildren = true;
          mouseEnabled = true;
     return state;
On another note, the states only update, once I start scrolling, everything updates... I tried to validateDisplayList() to the List after setting the dataProvider with no luck.
Once I find a solution I will certainly add it to my Blog as I have not found a lot of solutions for this problem.
Any help is grteatly appreciated.

Item Renderer Display Optimization

I have pretty basic row item renderer displayed within a data group, it is composed of a few labels and an icon. It has a few nested layouts to display everything properly, but I would not consider it a complicated layout by any means.
Whenever I display a result set, 20 rows of data, it appears Flex is choking displaying the item renders. It takes about half a second from the moment all the item renders have been created to actually draw them on the screen and the Flex code that handles the drawing appears to be blocking because everything on the screen freezes during this half second period. This display blocking turns a very fluid display rich application into a choppy mess whenever results are displayed.
I have gone great lengths to make sure none of my code is blocking and that I always give Flash Player the room it needs to breath to maintain it's frame rate, however I am stuck with this display issue. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks for the reply Sasha. I will try an AS item renderer but I have to say that data binding and layout management are probably the two biggest reasons to use Flex in the first place. If I can't use those items and have a smooth interface I might as well go back to just writing everything using Flash. (this is a little bit irritating to say the least)
Below is the code to one of the item renderers that is casuing probelms...if anything sticks out as wrong or out of place please let me know.
I appreciate your time, and response. Thank you.

Numeric cell in Tree control ?

Hi y'all !
I'd like to have numeric input cells in my TREE CONTROL. I can see the types string, ring, combo box, etc. ... but NUMERIC is not included.
I'm using CVI 2012.
Is there an alternative or does anyone know at least why it is not supported ?
Thanks!

Hi carolynturnell,
Indeed cell types included in a tree control are String,Ring, ComboBox, CheckBox, ColorPicker and HorizontalBar.
Tree controls are used to view a hierarchical list of items.
Why do you want to display Numeric/use tree control ?

Check Box in Tree Control

I found that the oracle installation is using tree control with check box. I tried to use the same feature in my application. But I found that the tree control in swing and infoswing is not having the feature to add checkbox in the tree control. If anybody knows how to add checkbox in the tree control using the jdeveloper please help me.

You can see how to do it the next link http://www2.gol.com/users/tame/swing/examples/JTreeExamples2.html

Tree Control Drop? Event in LV 8

Hi,
I developed one application using LV 7.1 which uses tree control Drop? event.
using this event I can get and compare source tag and target tag and based on result I can omite the Drag and Drop event.
But in LV 8 for Drop? event I am not getting Source and Target Tags. Same function how I can implement in LV 8.0?

Hello,
There is a lengthy thread on this topic here (including comments from the owner of Drag-and-Drop on the LabVIEW team):
