Tree in Advanced datagrid

I want to display datagrid as the child on opening the parent in advanced datagrid?.

Hi
I need something similar to this Using an item renderer that spans an entire row http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=advdatagrid_10.html instead of chart its datagrid.

Tree structure in advanced datagrid

Hi
I'm using advanced datagrid to mainly display heirarchical data.
There are five columns in my datagrid and name column is heirarchical one.
Problem I am facing is tree symbols are getting displayed in some other columns. Please help.

Hi PAgrawal,
Advanced DG has treeColumn property that you can assign to your name column
This will display tree icons on required column
Thanks and Best regards,
Abhishek

Hi,
you can check the view source of html and check the onclick code written on that plus sign(Expand All), just copy that onclick javascript code and put it on page javascript event.

Adding a Tree into a datagrid column

I have a requirement where I have to create a datagrid with
one of the columns having a tree control. The problem I am trying
to resolve is how to dynamically change the height of the datagrid
column which has the tree when the tree is collapsed and
dynamically increase the datagrid column height when the tree is
expanded.
Is is feasible ? Am I chasing a wild dream ?
Any help will be greatly appreciated...
Thanks

Darin,
Thank you for responding. I was able to get a tree display in
a datagrid. I am going to attach all the code.
The problem I am facing is, I need two clicks to expand a
tree in the datagrid column so that both the tree to expand and the
datagrid column to adjust its height. Let me know why this is so.
May be, being a newbie, I am completely off the track here. Thanks
in advance.

Mx_internal_uid problem with advanced datagrid

I have a XML structure like this:
<Projekti ...attributes>
<Tehtava ....attributes />
<Tehtava ...attributes />
</Projekti>
<Projekti...>
...etc
And I'm populating advanced datagrid with this hierarchial
data, so I can get a tree view in datagrid where there is Projekti
-nodes and inside them is the Tehtava-nodes.
Problem:
When I bind the XML, and the hierarchialdata (that is created
from the XML) flex automatically adds
<mx_internal_uid>a324235351514......</mx_internal_uid>
-nodes inside of the Projekti-nodes. And this causes empty folders
added in a tree view when user clicks them.
Is there a simple way to:
a) prevent thos uid-nodes being created?
b) filter thos <mx_internal_uid>-nodes out from the
dataprovider of the advanced datagrid?

I know this is way after-the-fact, but I just ran into this problem myself today. I found that it generated the mx_internal_uid if the node I was selecting was an XMLList instead of XML. A simple cast fixed the problem.
P.S. "And this causes empty folders added into a tree view when user clicks on them." makes perfect sense when you're using the XML inside a <mx:Tree>. As soon as you select the item (whether by clicking or programmatically), you get extra nodes in the tree.

Its near impossible to get a Advanced datagrid to remember its opened nodes when it has fresh data

Theres a post in
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg85521.html//www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg85521.html
which is basically saying its near impossible to get a Advanced datagrid to remember its opened nodes when it has fresh data
I'm having pretty much the same problem (exept I'm not filtering just getting the latest data from the server)as this guy and have been searching for a solution, heres what he said:
Sun, 02 Mar 2008 08:07:46 -0800
Hello guys,
I'm trying to filter my ADG without success :
I created a GroupingCollection from a flat ArrayCollection.
ADG's dataProvider is GroupingCollection.
First issue : refresh
if I filter the underlaying ArrayCollection, the related
groupingCollection doesn't refresh automatically (bug? feature?)
Actually I menaged to force gc.refresh() with some event( it is
impossible to listen on CollectionEventKind.REFRESH because of
infinite loop ac.refresh => gc.refresh )
Second issue (more important) : openNodes
Ok now that my gc is refreshed, the Tree in the ADG collapses itself
(ok let say that is normal), and I need it to expand all nodes that
were opened before.
I tried to do something like this :
var openNodes : Object = IHierarchicalCollectionView(
myADG.dataProvider ).openNodes;
gc.refresh();
myADG.dataProvider.openNodes = openNodes;
and it doesn't works.
next I tried this :
var openNodes : Object = IHierarchicalCollectionView(
myADG.dataProvider ).openNodes;
for each( var node : Object in openNodes )
IHierarchicalCollectionView( myADG.dataProvider.openNode( node )
guess what, doesn't work
I'm calling myADG.invalidateList() each time too.
I don't know what to do to achieve this simple task, I'm a bit
disappointed because I expected lot more from the brand new
AdvancedDataGrid and this basic functionality actually seems too hard
to implement.
I still hope I'm wrong and someone can show me the correct solution
Thank you all,
Adnan

Hi,
I remember the days when Oracle would practically give Oracle Financial s away just for the implementation consulting fees.
Yeah, IBM used to give-away DB2 also . . . .
Oracle Financial s away just for the implementation consulting fees. Yeah, but any ERP requires massive set-up costs. I once worked on an SAP effort that cost over $20,000,000.
complete with Microsoft head to headIn what? Oracle is far-and-away the world's most robust and flexible database, hundreds of times more powerful that SQL Server.
IMHO, it's like apples-to-oranges . . . .
Everyone is running SQL server Here, DICE shows over a hundred Oracle openings in the Boston area, that might help you:

Excel is the tool of choice for accountants and its integration withcubes is nothing short of stunning
Sorry, I must disagree! Yes, CPA's will download Oracle data into spreadsheets for analysis, but Excel is wanting, especially for hypothesis testing, correlational analysis and data mining. Oracle's ODM, however, is truly stunning, light-years ahead of PC-based tools:

Efficiently retrieve MANY records with Advanced Datagrid?

Hi all,
I've encountered the following issue:
I have a database with more then 120.000 records, that I want to show with an advanced datagrid.
It's grouped by 2 ID's, thus showing the results a group within a group. This works perfect!
Only: it takes a long time before it shows the results, probably because it's downloading all the records at once (with the getAll() function).
Is there a way to use advanced datagrid more efficiently? Like: first download the two columns that are used to define the groups, and only retrieve data that's visible once you click the group? (In this case, the 2nd group within the 1st group)
This would greatly increase the loading-time of the whole application.
Or should I take an other aproach to this application, like, using a tree-component, a simple datagrid, writing alternative update & retrieve functions in AS3 & PHP?
Thanks!

Hi Sam, thanks for your help!
I'm not sure though how to create the returned datastructure?
Example:
Product_id
productname
category_a
category_b
1
Toy A
boy
0-3
2
Toy B
girl
0-3
3
Toy C
girl
3-6
4
Toy D
boy
6-9
5
Toy E
girl
3-6
6
Toy F
boy
0-2
7
Toy G
boy
6-9
Grouping by [category_a] and [category_b], I would like to get the following in the Advanced Datagrid, but paginated:
Product_ID
Productname
boy
0-2
6
Toy F
0-3
1
Toy A
6-9
4
Toy D
7
Toy G
girl
0-3
2
Toy B
3-6
3
Toy C
5
Toy E
In my PHP-service, I would create the following query:
     public function getProducts_paged($startIndex, $numItems) {
          $stmt = mysqli_prepare($this->connection, "SELECT product_id, category_a, category_b, productname FROM $this->tablename GROUP BY category_a, category_b LIMIT(?,?)");
          $this->throwExceptionOnError();
          mysqli_bind_param($stmt, 'ii', $startIndex, $numItems);
          mysqli_stmt_execute($stmt);
          $this->throwExceptionOnError();
          $rows = array();
          mysqli_stmt_bind_result($stmt, $row->product_id, $row->category_a, $row->category_a, $row->productname);
         while (mysqli_stmt_fetch($stmt)) {
           $rows[] = $row;
           $row = new stdClass();
           mysqli_stmt_bind_result($stmt, $row->product_id, $row->category_a, $row->category_a, $row->productname);
          mysqli_stmt_free_result($stmt);
          mysqli_close($this->connection);
          return $rows;
This will give me the right structure, Right?
Now:

Drag and Drop in DataGrid/Advanced DataGrid

Hi All,
Here is the scenario, assume that i have some 10 records in
DataGrid/Advanced DataGrid .I have selected 4th record and when i
try to drag the selected item to
down, i should be able to drag all the records one step down
from the selected record( from 4 th record to 10th record)
i.e, re-arranging the items
If i drag the selected item(assume that some 6th record) to
top, say to 2nd row then from the second row all the rows
has to come down.
And How do we
add the rows at middle and at the specified position?
Any help will be appricated and Thanks in Advance.

Hi All,
myself got the solution for re-arranging the datagrid items
by using the pre-defined properties of DataGrid.
I can also get the index number of Items while start dragging
but the problem is how do i get the index number where the Items
dropped.

Grouping of Data in Advanced Datagrid

Hii,
I need to group the data in advanced datagrid. I used the Grouping collection class, but it it not working.
My advanced datagrid has column groups...so will this have any impact on grouping.
Thanks!!
Vikas

Assuming that the table (say WALK_IN_PER_LOG) that you have has atleast the following two columns
walk_in_date DATE -- holds date time stamp
dob DATE -- holds date of birth
SELECT TO_CHAR(walk_in_date,'WW')| |'-'| |TO_CHAR(walk_in_date,'DAY') "Week#-Day"
,TO_CHAR(TRUNC(TO_CHAR(walk_in_date,'HH24')/02),'09')| |'-'| |
TO_CHAR(TRUNC(TO_CHAR(walk_in_date,'HH24')/02)+2,'09')
,COUNT(*)
FROM walk_in_per_log
WHERE MONTHS_BETWEEN(SYSDATE,dob) > 18*12
GROUP BY TO_CHAR(walk_in_date,'WW')| |'-'| |TO_CHAR(walk_in_date,'DAY')
,TO_CHAR(TRUNC(TO_CHAR(walk_in_date,'HH24')/02),'09')| |'-'| |
TO_CHAR(TRUNC(TO_CHAR(walk_in_date,'HH24')/02)+2,'09')
PS I might have complicated the query a little in trying to get the formatting as you had requested but the principle is simple
First group by the day, so that all events of one day can be compared together, then extract the hour portion of each of those dates and divide by 2 and use the quotient of the division as a grouping factor.
eg
from hours
00-02 the quotient is 0 (2 is taken as 1:59:59)
02-04 the quotient is 1 (4 is taken as 3:59:59)
and so on
hope this helps....

Grouping issue on Advanced DataGrid

Hello,
I've got an advanced datagrid with 5 columns, The number_Group column has data like this...
1-10
1-10
11-20
11-20
11-20
21-30
21-30
21-30
41-50
101-110
When I apply Grouping, it works as expected but the 101-110 group is displayed before the 11-20 group.
I've tried to set groupingField.numeric = true but that screws it up even more... because 11-20 isn't a number I'm guessing.
Does anyone know a way around this? I could change the number_Group column to this...
1
1
11
11
21
41
101
and groupingField.numeric = true should work but I need the Grouping display to show 1-10, 11-20. Perhaps I can intercept this and modify it?
Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks,
Nick

Hi, Nicky
u can solve this problem by grouping function.
u create ur dataprovider like
private var myData:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([{data1:1, data2:10,......},
{data1:1, data2:21, ....}]);
u declare the grouping function in following manner
private function myGroupLabelFunction(item:Object, column:AdvancedDataGridColumn):String
// here u write ur logice to formatting ur dispalying data in advance grid.
//suppose ur labelfield of datagrid are data1,data2, data3 respectively.
return item.data1+"-"+item.data2;
if u do in this way i think it will work.
if u sucess then give me mark.
Thanks

PLEASE HELP!! Need some way to read header text in advanced datagrid using QTP

I am writing a function to read column names in advanced data
grid. There is no operation for that and any of the properties that
I can use to read the column names.
Please suggest any way that I can get the names of columns in
the advanced data grid.
Thanks

I hope to hear something from adobe folks...I am providing
more info.....
I am using QTP 9.2 and Flex 3 add-in available from Adobe.
My application has flex Advanced datagrid object and I am
trying to read column names for the datagrid.
I have contacted developers and they told me that column
names for flex advanced datagrid are stored in "Header Text"
I have tried reading "Header Text" using
GetROProperty("HeaderText") but it doesn't return anything.
I have tried the following code:
x =
Browser("app").FlexApplication("flexapp").FlexCanvas("Canvas").FlexAdvancedDatagrid("esti mategridid").GetROProperty("Header
Text")
msgbox x
I have also tried getting value for column names using other
available properties for webtables like outerhtml, outertext, alt
etc. but I don't get any data.
Part of the problem may be because none of the above
mentioned properties are supported by Flex Advanced datagrid.
I have also tried getting child objects but I always get the
data in datagrid as values but not the column names.
My primary reason for getting column names is to write a
function to update cell in datagrid independent of application. So,
I want to pass column name as a parameter to the function and get
the corresponding columnIndex in the function by comparing the
parameter value against column names.
Thanks to all for you help...

Does compiling an advanced datagrid using flex ant task require additional config other than the license property?

Hi,
    I am trying to build my Flex app which uses the Advanced Data Grid in a couple of locations. Originally, when I built the app using the flex ant tasks, I noticed the Visualization Trial watermark show up on the screen. I then added the license tag with the serial number to my flex-config.xml and re-ran my ant build. The watermark goes away, but then when I look at the advanced datagrid, the datagrid shows up with the hierarchy, but the data does not display in the grid (only the group by nodes are visible, not the data for the leaf elements). This works fine when I build the app using my Flex Builder. Is there something I am missing or need to add to my flex ant task to make this work?
Any help or guidance is much appreciated.
The following is the ant task to build the module that uses the ADG:
    <target name="compile-modules" depends="compile-shared">

HP QTP10 cannot read Automation values of Advanced DataGrid

Hi everyone,
We're an Automation functional testing team, testing a flex application with HP QTP v10. So far we've successfully automated many parts of the application. Now, we're struck at a serious issue.
The issue is QTP cannot read automation values specified for an Advanced Datagrid (ADG).
While trying to read row data of the ADG, the automation name of QTP shows like,
"lblData | someGroup | | ** | | | | | | | | | | lblData"
The screenshot of Object Spy while spying ADG is also attached.
Other than the Automation Index, we are not able to populate any automation values of a row data.
The ADG is a custom one. Our development team has customized it in some way, and we dont have access to the code. They are using an External renderer or Custom renderer to render values into the column.
As there is no possiblity for value-based recording, we tried to access the ADG with index-based recording. Then, we 're able to perform operations like Click, but cannot read contents of the row/cell.
We're using:
HP Quick TestProfessional v10.0
Flex plugin 4.5
Internet Explorer 7
Flash Player v10
Our Questions are:
How to get automation values for these custom ADG?
Is there any other possible ways to access the custom ADG components other than these automation values?
Do we need any patches/plugin upgradation to perform this?
Is there any other tools in market that can recognize and access these custom ADGs?
Without these automation values we're unable to proceed further work. Any replies/comments/help are welcome.
Thank you!

A sortCompareFunction would look something like:
Function sortWithNullAtEnd(a:Object, b:Object, field:Array = null):int
    if (a.fieldName == null && b.fieldName == null) return 0;
    if (a.fieldName == null) return 1;
    if (b.fieldName == null) return –1;
    if (a.fieldName < b.fieldName)
        return –1;
    if (a.fieldName > b.fieldName)
        return 1;
    return 0;
Note that this sort would be unstable so you might be better off using a second field to get stability.

(Advanced)DataGrid with selectable columns

Hello -
I'm trying to make a Flex (Advanced)DataGrid component with some mechanism where the user can toggle the visibility of the columns. I've crudely implemented this by reading in the columns into the right-click menu, and when a column name is selected here, the visibility is toggled. It works, but it's not the most elegant solution.
Specifically, I'm trying to emulate the "datagrid" that Mozilla Thunderbird uses to display emails. Here is an image:
In the upper right, there is an icon over the scroll bar. If there is no scrollbar, the icon remains in the same place. When clicking the icon, it opens up a menu that shows all the possible columns, with the visible ones having a check mark next to them, like this:
Also, the scroll bar always appears under this button, never "pushing" it over into it's own column.
I'd like to re-create this in Flex. I believe the menu part and creating a column with a button headerRendered is easy enough. But I can't figure out how (if at all possible) to do this with the scrollbar, because the scrollbar always seems to be "its own column". Any ideas or help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Advanced datagrid dropline

I have used dragStart and dragDrop event in advanced datagrid for drag and drop row. While draging drop line show above the drop row. I need it will be below the drop row.
Can any one help me?

My answer to your other question is also applicable here. The dataField property can be accessed via the listData property of your renderer if your renderer implements the IDropInListItemRenderer interface. You'll need to cast listData to AdvancedDataGridListData.
