Locking the first column in advanced data grid on horizontal scrolling

Hi All,
My requirement is to freeze or lock the first column in the advanceddatagrid from scrolling on horizontal scroll event.
The column should always remain in the left hand side of the grid.
I tried with lockedColumnCount property of the advanced grid. But it is not working.
Could anyone help me please with code examples

I am able to do the above by using the method which passes
the sort information to data provider. But now the problem I am
facing is I cannot use event.preventDefault(); along with that
method. If I use event.preventDefault(); then it does not show the
descending arrow on the column, nor does it sort on multiple
columns.
But if I do not use event.preventDefault(); then the problem
I am getting is it remembers the previous sort order for a
particular column. eg. If I sorted on col A (desc)+colB and now I
sort on colC. Again if I click on col A, the data provider sorts on
colA ascending shows it and then the grid refreshes sorting on col
A but in descending order.
Does somebody know how to get around this problem?

Data grid within advanced data grid (Hiding and showing columns)

Hi,
I have a dta grid within advanced datagrid. When the row of advanced data grid is expanded, the datagrid opens up.
I want to control the columns of datagrid based on the value of a field in advanced data grid. I want to show all the columns of the datagrid if the field value of advanced data grid is "X" else I want to show only few columns of the data grid.
I will set the id for all the columns of the datagrid. Then I think I can write some code in a method to set the visibility of the columns and assign the function to item opening property of the advanced data grid.
Please give me some ideas.
Regards,
Mahee

All the data getting exported in the first column of csv while exporting

Hi All,
In 11.5.10.2, I have a page with advanced table region. Am using OA Framework's export button to export the results.
But, problem is, All the results are getting exported in the first column of the output .csv file. Why such a behavior?
Profile Option of 'Export MIME Type' value is text/text-separted-values.
Any ideas would be of timely help. Thanks.
Regards, Soorya

From OAF standpoint, it just exports the data. Data interpretation is completely dependent on client machine and excel setups.
Please check the Data-->Text to Columns wizard where we can specify the delimiter(s) on excel.
Not sure if this can be set up in Apps, so that we need not change on every end-user machine.
Hope this helps.

Column formatting based on grouping data value- advanced data grid

Hello Everyone,
I am using advanced data grid to display hierarchial data nested upto depth 4. I have to color the leaf nodes conditionally based on the grouped column value.
Say for Eg.,
If the data is something like
Company
     Manager
          Jim          $4000
          John        $3000
     Accountant
          Smith     $2000
          Sam       $3000
I have to color Jim and John based on they being a manager. In other words, how do I get Manager and Company information for the leaf rows. The data is serial to start with and I am grouping it before displaying.
Please let me know how this could be done.
Thanks
Arun

Once htmldb.oracle.com is available again, you may have a look in my demo application:

In the tab section I, you will find several examples on pop-up pages. There this conditional

Advanced Data Grid Column Grouping

When using column grouping with the advanced data grid, is it
possible to ONLY show the AdvancedDataGridColumnGroup headerText
and not have the extra row for the AdvancedDataGridColumn
headerText? For instance, if a have a set of 3 columns with a
spanned group headerText of "manage", and the columns have buttons
with the text "edit", "move" and "delete", can I just omit the
secondary headings since the "edit|move|delete" text is there on
the buttons and redundant as a column heading?

3 cfgrids on one page. Columns from grid 1,2 and 3 are swapping the first select box from each grid.

ColdFusion 11, hot fix 3 installed but did not help. There are no binds.
This one has been driving me crazy and I have finally figured out that it is the first column in each grid where there is a select box via "valuesdisplay" that is the issue. Select box results are switching grids!
Example of how it is coded to display:
Grid 1 - gridcolumn should have a dropdown with 1,2,3
Grid 2 - gridcolumn should have a dropdown with a,b,c
Grid 3 - gridcolumn should have a dropdown with x,y,z
However, the results in the dropdowns in the grids are:
Grid 1 - x,y,z (should be 1,2,3)
Grid 2 - 1,2,3 (should be a,b,c)
Grid 3 - a,b,c (should be x,y,z)
This only happens with the first dropdown for each grid. Any other columns with dropdowns do not have any issues and do not swap out to the wrong grid.
Sample of my code from the grids:
Grid 1:
<cfgrid name = "evalgrid"
height="200"
autowidth="no"
font="arial" fontsize="12"
query = "getevalfinal"
SORT="Yes"
selectmode="edit"
format="html"
insert="yes"
delete = "#deletevalue#">
<CFGRIDCOLUMN NAME="numberofschools" HEADER="numberofschools"
HEADERALIGN="LEFT" DATAALIGN="LEFT"
BOLD="Yes" ITALIC="No"
SELECT="Yes" DISPLAY="Yes"
HEADERBOLD="Yes" HEADERITALIC="No"
VALUES = " ,NA,1,2,D"
VALUESdisplay = "Blank,NA,1,2,D" valuesDelimiter=","
width=50>
</cfgrid>
Second Grid:'
<cfgrid name = "SecondGrid"
height="100" width="700"
font="arial" fontsize="12"
query = "getsecurity"
SORT="Yes"
selectmode="edit"
format="html"
insert="yes"
delete = "#deletevalue#"
autowidth="yes"
>
<CFGRIDCOLUMN NAME="userrole" HEADER="userrole"
HEADERALIGN="LEFT" DATAALIGN="LEFT"
BOLD="Yes" ITALIC="No"
SELECT="Yes" DISPLAY="Yes"
HEADERBOLD="YES" HEADERITALIC="No"
VALUES = "#olduserrole#"
VALUESdisplay = "#olduserrole#" valuesDelimiter=","
WIDTH=300
font="arial" fontsize="12">
</cfgrid>
In the above code, userrole values end up being in the wrong grid where numberofschools values should be and vice versa.
Appreciate any help!

Ah! the delights of advanced data grid!

I have a xml hierarchical advanced data grid.
Is there a way to disable the folderIcons for the advanceddatagrid?
Or is there a way to integrate the folderIcon actions to selected row actions?
Right now, I have a listener for itemOpen. When one folder opens, then another one will close. However, when the user clicks on the folderIcon....it does not do this. I do not know how to access the expandeditem of the advanceddatagrid.
Thank you for your help!
Emma
* Also, the fonts are being embedded by css...when you click on the folder...the fonts jump while they are being propagated. suggestions?

That is a great idea...except I am using the selectRow to use these same events.
It seems what I need is access to the same selectedItem.
When I click on the row, I pass through _selectedItem from the event function.
However, it is a little bit more complicated for the drop down buttons.
I try to get the same format with this:
selectedItem=IHierarchicalCollectionView(adg.dataProvider).openNodes;
but I get an [object][object]
I found this bit of code on a site:
import mx.collections.HierarchicalCollectionView;
myOpenNodes:Array = new Array();
var HierColView:HierarchicalCollectionView = HierarchicalCollectionView(myADG.dataProvider);
for each ( var item:Object in HierColView.openNodes ) {
myOpenNodes.push(item);
myADG.dataProvider.openNodes = myOpenNodes;

Dumping data from an advanced data grid on the browser to microsoft Excel

I am building an app which enables a user to define a sql
query in a flex app on the browser. Once defined and the data
retrieved, the result set is then displayed in an advanced data
grid. The user then needs to be able to dump the data in the grid
to an Excel spreadsheet.
I'm wondering if anybody can point me to some possible
solutions for the Excel data dump part of this problem? Everything
else works.
Flex help does have one solution, but I'm getting an error
message that doesn't want to yield. I'd like to know if there are
other possibilities?
Thanks in advance. Jerry in Juneau, Alaska

What version are you using? If in 9i, you can use external tables. Otherwise, you will need either SQL loader, or to use ODBC. If you send me an example of your data, I can create a sample of each for you.

Read data in the first column selected in a Multicolumn listbox

When a row is selected in a multicolumn listbox (1 item), how do I go about reading the data in the first column?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The multicolumn listbox itself is numeric array data type. If you have allowed selection of only 1 item and selection mode of select entire row, it returns the row number. Use the "Item Names" property node to return a 2d array of strings of the items in your box. Index it by the row from the value of the listbox and column 0. See attached code.

Advanced Data Grid - Multi-Select

Good Day,
I am using an Advanced Data Grid to display data to the user. The user needs to be able to select multiple rows, and not necessarily in order. This is all fine, however, they don't want to have to hold the CTRL or SHIFT keys when selecting, and would like the mouse to act as a select/deselect for the row.
I know that I will have to extend the ADG class to handle this, but I was hoping that someone else may have done this, or has some guidance. I have never extended a class before, so I am not sure what all steps i will need to take.
Thanks!

sortExpertMode property
public var sortExpertMode:Boolean
By default, the sortExpertMode property is set to false,
which means you click in the header area of a column to sort the
rows of the AdvancedDataGrid control by that column. You then click
in the multiple column sort area of the header to sort by
additional columns. If you set the sortExpertMode property to true,
you use the Control key to select every column after the first
column to perform sort.
The default value is false.
So, this property simply changes HOW you do multi-column
sorting.
I submitted an enhancement request:

SQL Loader Inserts chr(13) and chr(10) in the first column of every row.

Hi,
I have exported a data in a pipe delimited file using TOAD in one database. Now I want to load the data in my local database using SQL Loader. However every time I try to load the data a double quote followed by a new line is entered for the first column of each row. Unfortunately the delimited file is very big and hence can't be posted here. However I tried the same with a customized table and its data and found the same problem. Below are the table structures and control file that I used.
create table test_sql
a varchar2(30),
b date
insert into test_sql values('51146263',sysdate-3);
insert into test_sql values('51146261,sysdate-1);
EXPORTED PIPE DELIMITED FILE_
A|B|!##!
51146261|04/14/13 4:55:18 PM|!##!
51146263|04/12/13 4:55:32 PM|!##!
create table test_sql1 as select * from test_sql where 1=2;
CONTROL FILE_
OPTIONS(SKIP=1)
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'C:\Users\Prithwish\Desktop\Test.txt' "str '!##!'"
PRESERVE BLANKS
INTO TABLE TEST_SQL1
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|' OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
TRAILING NULLCOLS
A CHAR(2000),
B DATE "MM/DD/YYYY HH12:MI:SS AM"
select * from TEST_SQL1;
After this when I paste it in notepad I get the following result
A B
51146261" 14-APR-0013 16:55:18
51146263" 12-APR-0013 16:55:32.
I have no idea how the quotes or the newline appear. Is this a Toad bug? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Really urgent.
Thanks in advance
Regards

Hi Harry,
I actually thought that the str !##! was causing the problem. Actually my original export has some new lines in some specific columns so I can't keep the new line as my line terminator and hence I kept the !##! as my terminator.
When I put the same data in a notepad and load it there is no problem at all. For e.g I just typed the following in a notepad and the data loaded just fine.
A|B|!##!
51146261|01-01-01 10:10:10 AM|!##!
51146263|01-01-01 11:11:11 AM|!##!
Its just when I load the exported file there the problem arises though I have verified the file using UNIX as well using octal dump and found no hidden characters.

Prithwish

Adding a button in an Advanced Data Grid that calls a AS function

I'm having a bit of trouble with this... maybe I'm missing something elementary.
I have a data grid that populates. I'd like to make the first column that currently displays the an ID display a button that executes a function that acts on the passed ID.
I can get the button to display, but when I click it, I get an error:
ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property userlistDeleteUserFunc not found on Main and there is no default value.
at userGrid/__lblData_click()[C:\Users\Mike\\src\userGrid.mxml:7]
So the grid looks like this:
Main.mxml:
<script tags...>
private function userlistDeleteUserFunc(id:Number):void{
Alert.show(id.toString());
</script tags>
<mx:AdvancedDataGrid x="10" y="12" id="userlistgrid" width="808" height="348" dataProvider="{userlistdata}" selectionMode="multipleCells" editable="true" enabled="true" sortableColumns="true">
<mx:columns>
<mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn width="90" dataField="id" headerText=" " editable="false" />
<mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn headerText="Username" dataField="username" editable="false"/>

<mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn headerText="First Name" dataField="first" editable="true"/>
<mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn headerText="Email Address" dataField="email" editable="true"/>

</mx:columns>
<mx:rendererProviders>
<mx:AdvancedDataGridRendererProvider dataField="id" renderer="userGrid" columnIndex="0" />
</mx:rendererProviders>
</mx:AdvancedDataGrid>
And the renderer:
userGrid.mxml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:MXAdvancedDataGridItemRenderer xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"

<s:Button id="lblData" top="0" left="0" right="0" bottom="0" label="Delete" click="{parentApplication.userlistDeleteUserFunc(data.id)}" />
</s:MXAdvancedDataGridItemRenderer>

Please help me !!!! I have been stuck up with this issue for the past two days and I need to atleast figure out if this is possible or not in the first place.

"advanced data grid" with flex builder 3.0

I'm getting watermark as "Flex Data Visualization
Trial" when tried to use advances data grid with flex builder 3.0. There are some links floating on the internet where it's suggested that the license key should be provided in the flex-config.xml to avoid this issue. I would like to know if this componenet is stable with flex builder 3.0 and is it ok to use this in production environment?

Someone from Adobe might be able to answer more definitely
but it's probably just not considered compatible with a modified
Eclipse (at least, the installer). It may just be the installer
blowing up when it shouldn't. I think Adobe doesn't want to support
install configurations that they don't have setup and tested. I had
a similar issue once and solved it by doing the following... not
sure if it'll work, and it's more of a last resort:
Setup a regular eclipse install - install the plugin there.
Somehow, you'll have to keep track of all the files it adds, either
using timestamps or some compare software. It should be a bunch of
files and/or folders in the '/plugins' directory, and possibly a
few others in '/configuration', maybe '/features'. Take all the new
folders and any jar files etc, and drop them into the same folders
in your special Eclipse version. Hopefully when you start it up
you'll get the Flex functions...
Of course, you could end up hosing your entire "NWDS"
(whatever this is) install. So you probably want to test it out
first!

Advanced data grid and grouping

This is probably a basic questions, so hopefully someone will
know the answer. I have an advanced data grid that works find a
follows:
<mx:AdvancedDataGrid id="adgReportList"
horizontalCenter="0"
y="28" width="485" height="500" dataProvider="{reports}">
<mx:columns>
<mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn headerText="Proposal Number"
dataField="PROPOSAL_NUMBER"/>
<mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn headerText="Report Title"
dataField="REPORT_TITLE"/>
<mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn headerText="Report Start Date"
dataField="PERIOD_BEGINING"/>
</mx:columns>
</mx:AdvancedDataGrid>
So the data coming back seems to be fine. But when I try to
group the data as follows, nothing shows:
<mx:AdvancedDataGrid id="adgReportList"
horizontalCenter="0"
y="28" width="485" height="500"
initialize="gc.refresh();">
<mx:dataProvider>
<mx:GroupingCollection id="gc" source="{reports}">
<mx:grouping>
<mx:Grouping>
<mx:GroupingField name="PROPOSAL_NUMBER" />
</mx:Grouping>
</mx:grouping>
</mx:GroupingCollection>
</mx:dataProvider>
<mx:columns>
<mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn headerText="Proposal Number"
dataField="PROPOSAL_NUMBER"/>
<mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn headerText="Report Title"
dataField="REPORT_TITLE"/>
<mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn headerText="Report Start Date"
dataField="PERIOD_BEGINING"/>
</mx:columns>
</mx:AdvancedDataGrid>
Thanks for any help.

You're binding to it. Make sure it is bindable.
