Using item renderer in datagrid

Hi there,
I am trying to pass boolean data from a VO into a selected property of a checkbox component. Any thoughts on how to do this?
          <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Active" width="60" dataField="active"> <--- need to pass this into  the selected property
               <mx:itemRenderer>
                    <mx:Component>
                         <mx:Box horizontalAlign="center">
                              <mx:CheckBox />
                         </mx:Box>
                    </mx:Component>
               </mx:itemRenderer>
          </mx:DataGridColumn>

<mx:itemRenderer>
     <mx:Component>
          <mx:CheckBox selected="{Number(data.active)==1?true:false}" click="data.active=data.active" textAlign="center"/>
     </mx:Component>
</mx:itemRenderer>
The click event is present to prevent the user form changing the checkbox state. Hope this works for you.

  • Multi-Use Item Renderer for DataGrid Column

    I have a dataGrid where the first column of the grid displays
    an icon for the 'type' of item in the row. I created a custom
    itemRenderer component which I reference in its own namespace, and
    everything works great. Since this is a pretty common concept, I'd
    thought that I'd be able to re-use that itemRenderer throughout the
    application, but everytime I try to call the itemRenderer in
    another dataGrid, I get 2 errors saying "the inlineComponent could
    not be found" and then because of that "Access of undefined
    property".
    It doesn't make sense for an itemRenderer to be only good for
    one use, so I'm obviously missing some fundamental issue. Can
    someone enlighten me?

    Hah, found it. It is an mxml example, and implements
    IDropInListItemRenderer. It for an image renderer, but you will be
    able to see what to do.

  • Problem with checkbox item renderer in datagrid

    I have a data grid having check box as an item renderer. I have viewed many posts in this forum but nothing useful in my case. I am failed to bind my datagrid itemrenderer checkbox with the field of dataprovider i.e. listUnitMovement.CHECK_PATH. Then I have to traverse data provider to check which checkboxes are checked.
    [Bindable]

    Hi,
    Do you want to just check/uncheck the checkboxes based on the CHECK_PATH field.
    Do you want something like this...

    </mx:Script>

    Please let me know clearly what's your problem...Do you want to just bind the check box based on XmlList or something else..?

    ClassFactory takes a class, not an instance.
    Try something like:
    foo:ClassFactory = new ClassFactory(Image)
    foo.properties= {height=75,
    source:"../tb/"+instrumentos.thumbnail+".jpg"};
    coluna2.itemRenderer = foo;
    Note that using a ClassFactory this way will give you the
    same image in
    every renderer to start out with. However, I believe that
    image
    itemRenderers by default will take their source from the data
    property when
    that gets set.

  • Item Renderer for DataGrid

    I have a button component as a Item renderer in the column of
    the datagrid .
    I am not able to access the Itemrenderer component(which I
    declared in other mxml file in the datagrid)
    This is the data grid where I have the Itemrenderer:
    <mx:DataGrid id="dgCondition1"
    variableRowHeight="true" width="100%" height="150"
    verticalScrollPolicy="auto" editable="true"
    dataProvider="{initDataGrid_Create}" >

    dataField="syntax" width="300" />
    <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="1" dataField="value"
    width="80" editable="false" itemRenderer="buttonRenderer"/>
    <mx:DataGridColumn dataField="value" headerText="2"
    itemRenderer="buttonRenderer" />
    I created a new mxml component for this button component
    .(buttonRenderer.mxml)

    <mx:Button id="col1" label="" width="75"
    click="getDetail(event,col1)" />
    </mx:VBox>
    The Problem is I am not able to access the buttonRenderer in
    the datagrid itemRenderer tag .
    It says "Access of Undefined Property buttonRenderer".

  • Item renderer on DataGrid (not DataGridColumn)

    It seems that all the published examples of using an item renderer on a DataGrid use the itemRenderer property of DataGridColumn.
    I don't think I can do this because my columns are created at run time, depending on the contents of the data provider.
    I have therefore tried to assign my item renderer (a subclass of Canvas) directly to the DataGrid.
    1. This works in MXML when the renderer is inline.
    2. It sees to work when the renderer is an Actionscript class assigned to the DataGrid's itemRenderer property.
    3. It does NOT work when the renderer is Flex component assigned to the DataGrid's itemRenderer property. This compiler error is reported: Initializer for 'itemRenderer': cannot parse value of type mx.core.IFactory from text 'comp:CellRenderer'.
    I prefer to use the last method. Is there a way to fix this error?
    If not, is it possible to attach the item renderer to each DataGridColumn as it is created? DataGrid does not seem to have a suitable event that reports when a column is created.
    Aplogies if this is elementary stuff. I am a real Flex newbie. I am using Flex Builder 3.0
    Andy Kirkham

    A code example would be helpful here, but from your error message it
    looks like you may be doing the following
    <mx:DataGrid itemRenderer="comp:CellRenderer"/>
    Instead of  this, you need to use the fully qualified class name of
    CellRenderer, eg.
    com.renderers.CellRenderer
    Look at the definition of 'comp' towards the top of your MXML file, it
    will be something like:
    xmlns:comp="blah.blah.blah.*"
    Your itemRenderer property should then be set to:
    blah.blah.blah.CellRenderer

  • Changing text color of item renderer in datagrid

    Hi,
    I have the following datagrid:
    <mx:DataGridColumn field="name" ......... />
    <mx:DataGridColumn itemRenderer="myRenderer" ...... />
    In myRenderer, I extend from the TextInput class; with the
    text color:WHITE
    My question is:
    When I do a mouse rollover/selection on any row of the
    datagrid, how can I change the text color of my renderer?
    If I add the rollover/selection event listener for my
    renderer, it will only change the color when my mouse is over its
    column.
    I want it to change colour whenever the row is selected/
    rollover.
    Thank you very much.
    Regards,
    hy

    Hi,
    The rollOverColor and selectionColor style on the Datagrid
    will only work for the normal columns.
    Since my column extends from the TextInput, the rollOverColor
    and selectionColor style does not seem to have any effect on the
    itemrenderer.

  • Item renderer in datagrid

    Hi,
    I have a simple datagrid in which one of the column is a
    quantity field. The user can change the quantity for any row. So I
    have something like:
    <mx:DataGrid dataProvider="{arrTest}" width="100%"
    height="100%" >

    <mx:Array>

    </mx:DataGrid>
    I am not exactly sure how should I get all the updated values
    in the datagrid so that I can update the database.
    Thanks

    you wouldnt need an itemRenderer in this case. make the last
    datagrid column Editable and listen to itemEdit event, or iterate
    through the underlying arraycollection to get the modified data of
    the datagrid.

  • Datagrid item renderer destroys on mouse over

    Hi,
         I used Flex 3.5 datagrid. I used item renderes in my datagrid. and i set 'rendererIsEditor = true'.
         Everything is very smooth and good. But somtimes my datagrid acting badly. When i put cursor on itemRenderer, It open-up for
    editing. When i move mouse, item renderer destroyed.
         Once it happens it is the default behaviour of my datagrid. No editing can be performed.
          But i can not reproduce it always. sometimes it a happens.
          please help me. anybody know about this?

    Simplify your test case.  Try using a simple TextInput as the renderer and
    see if you have the same problem.

                   super.data = value;
                   ac = new ArrayCollection(value.models);
         ]]>

  • How to dispatch custom events from an item renderer used for Datagrid Column

    Hi,
    I am using an Item Renderer for a Data Grid Column and in that mxml, I am dispatching a custom event with data.
    But the main mxml which has the DataGrid is not able to resolve the event. How can I solve this?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    This is the constructor for Event.
    public function Event(type:String, bubbles:Boolean  = false, cancelable:Boolean  = false)
    When you created your custom event after extending from Event, for the parent container receives the event, the bubbles property must be set to true.
    Please check if you have done so. That should solve the problem. Let me know if it doesn't.
