Flex: AdvancedDataGridColumn tooltip interference - apache-flex

The AdvancedDataGridColumn has a property showDataTips. If this is set to true then each cell in the AdvancedDataGridColumn will show a toolTip on rollOver. There is just one problem, the toolTip covers the entire cell.
This is a problem, because the cell has a custom contextMenu. Right clicking the toolTip will bring up the default menu. Is there a way to click through the toolTip or provide a yOffset so that the tooltip appears below the cell?

Textarea over button, button not clickable

I have put textarea over button, but it made button not clickable at the positions where textarea is. How can I disable textarea selection and make button clickable on whole surface, while textarea is still visible?
The same with small image (icon). If I put icon over button it will not be clickable on that position.
You can use pointer-events: none on the overlapping objects which will let you "click through" it, i.e. click the element below it.

Angular ng-Grid cell text overflow to add a cell hover menu

I have an ng-grid set up as a matrix with a text column and about 36 number columns. I'm trying to create a hover popup type menu that will allow the user to add a comment to a specific cell value. I've added a hidden div to the cell template for each cell which I can display on hover.
The issue I'm having is with the overflow of the hover menu. The "Edit..." text is clipped off by the edges of the cell so I only see "Ed".
I've tried adding 'overflow: visible' to the cell but this hasn't worked. Do I need to do this with javascript instead?
Yes I had to use JavaScript instead.

Removing default onclick or onItemClick color animation

When I click on some button or I click on the a element in grid or list view, a default orange color appears. I don't want that color to come when I click on it. Please tell me how can I do this.
And also is it possible to change the orange color by some other custom color when i click on button or items in grid or list view.
There is an example of how to set this here:

How to build a Flex FormItem with an image button in the label section?

I want to build a flex FormItem extension that adds a button into the item label section, such that there is both a text label and, to the right of it, a button that uses an image icon:
A form item http://img830.imageshack.us/img830/4411/screenshot20100730at331.png
Basically, I want to create that 'i' icon, such that I can click on it to display a help overlay for the item in question.
Is there an existing component that does this? If not, how do I do it?
Try to use grid, gridrow, and grititem, like the html table. and add the label and the "i" image into a horizontal layout container inside the griditem.

What Property Governs The Text Color Of Checkbox Text OnMouseOver In Flex?

Because the color of the background image in my application is very dark, and the Alpha is very low, when I hover my mouse over a checkbox, the text is scarcely visible. I've scoured the interwebz in vain for what property to set, either at design-time or in the MouseOver event for the checkbox and just can't figure out what property or setStyle property to alter to be able to control the color of the checkbox text when the mouse pointer is hovering over it. Does anyone have any experience in this area, who could point me in the right direction please?
Are you looking for textRollOverColor?
The Flex style explorer is a good resource for this sort of thing. See the "Form Elements" category for checkboxes.
