I want to extend the DataGrid component so that there is a (read-only) column for the row number like you see in spreadsheets. I came across this article http://www.cflex.net/showFileDetails.cfm?ObjectID=735 but it depends on the data being unique for each row so that it can index into the array. If the data is not unique (like for an empty grid) it doesn't work. How can I implement that?
This worked for me:
<mx:Label xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import mx.controls.AdvancedDataGrid;
private var handleDataChangedEnabled:Boolean = false;
override public function set data(value:Object):void {
super.data = value;
if (!handleDataChangedEnabled) {
addEventListener("dataChange", handleDataChanged);
}
}
public function handleDataChanged(event:Event):void {
this.text = String(listData.rowIndex + (listData.owner as AdvancedDataGrid).verticalScrollPosition + 1);
}
]]>
</mx:Script>
Of course, you would have to change AdvancedDataGrid to DataGrid.
Cheers.
ensure that the dataProvider has a unique column or property, then dont show that column/property if you dont wont to.
The key is the dataProvider
Just use this class as your itemRenderer:
RowNumColumnRenderer.as
package
{
import mx.collections.IList;
import mx.controls.AdvancedDataGrid;
import mx.controls.Label;
import mx.controls.listClasses.ListBase;
public class RowNumColumnRenderer extends Label
{
override public function set data(value:Object):void
{
super.data = value;
if (listData != null)
this.text = (AdvancedDataGrid(listData.owner).itemRendererToIndex(this) + 1).toString();
}
}
}
I was able to do this by implementing a custom itemRenderer, RowNumberRenderer.as
package com.domain
{
import mx.collections.IList;
import mx.controls.Label;
import mx.controls.listClasses.ListBase;
public class RowNumberRenderer extends Label
{
public function RowNumberRenderer()
{
super();
}
override public function set data(value:Object):void
{
super.data = value;
this.text = String(IList(ListBase(listData.owner).dataProvider).getItemIndex(data) + 1);
}
}
}
how about the following:
RendererRowIndexPlusOne.as
package
{
import mx.controls.Label;
import mx.utils.StringUtil;
import mx.utils.ObjectUtil;
public class RendererRowIndexPlusOne extends Label
{
public override function set data(item:Object):void {
super.data = item;
trace('listData.label ' + listData.label);
trace('listData.rowIndex ' + listData.rowIndex);
trace('listData.columnIndex ' + listData.columnIndex);
trace('listData.owner ' + listData.owner);
text = String(listData.rowIndex + 1);
}
}
}

I've got some problem in Flex. Basically I want to navigate to other pages by using navigator.pushview from list through custom item renderer. This is my CustomItemRender.as. Edit:
package renderer

[Bindable]
public var navigator:ViewNavigator = new ViewNavigator();
public function PrgListItemRenderer()

}
override public function set data(value:Object):void
{
super.data = value;
}
override protected function createChildren():void
{
super.createChildren();
if(!takeAtt)
{
var_A= new Image();
var_A.source = "data/pics/var_A.png";
var_A.width = 23;
var_A.height = 23;
var_A.buttonMode = true;
var_A.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, var_AItem);
addChild(var_A);
}
}
override protected function measure():void
{
super.measure();
// measure all the subcomponents here and set measuredWidth, measuredHeight,
// measuredMinWidth, and measuredMinHeight
}
/**
* #private
*
* Override this method to change how the background is drawn for
* item renderer. For performance reasons, do not call
* super.drawBackground() if you do not need to.
*/
override protected function drawBackground(unscaledWidth:Number,
unscaledHeight:Number):void
{
super.drawBackground(unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight);
// do any drawing for the background of the item renderer here
if(selected || showsCaret)
{
graphics.beginFill(0xffffff, 1);
graphics.endFill();
}
}
public function var_AItem(event:MouseEvent):void
{
trace("navigator: "+navigator);
navigator.pushView(nextView); //this is the line that have error #1009
}
}
}
But I got Error #1009. Help me please. Thanks.
I think it's a bad idea to listen to the click event inside the item renderer.
Your basic setup should look something like this:
->ViewNavigatorApplication>
-->SomeCustomView
---> SomeListBasedComponent id="list" itemRenderer="someCustomRenderer"
Fill the list with some data, which will be presented by your itemRenderer.
Now listen to the "IndexCangeEvent" of the list (from your view) and handle the 'click' there
To your view add:
private function init():void
{
list.addEventListener(IndexChangeEvent.CHANGE , onIndexChange );
}
protected function onIndexChange(e:IndexChangeEvent):void
{
// find out which item was selected. You can use the selectedItem property for this
var item:Object = list.selectedItem;
// start the view;
navigator.pushView(MyViewClass , item.someViewData );
}
Your view will hold the reference to the ViewNavigator.
P.S. dont forget to call the init() function onCreationComplete() of your view.
To your view declaration add:
View ... creationComplete="init()" >
I have an IDropInListItemRenderer that is being used inside a List. The height of the row depends on both the data and it's position in the List's view.
How do I remeasure as soon as the row index changes?
updateDisplayList doesn't get called every time, and also by that point it's too late because the List has already measured it.
edit
The effect I'm trying to achieve is similar to iOS where the header for a section sticks to the top
Here is the basic renderer that doesn't measure correctly:
import mx.controls.Label;
import mx.controls.listClasses.BaseListData;
import mx.controls.listClasses.IDropInListItemRenderer;
import mx.controls.listClasses.IListItemRenderer;
import mx.core.UIComponent;
import mx.events.FlexEvent;
public class MyRowRenderer extends UIComponent implements IListItemRenderer, IDropInListItemRenderer {
private static const HEADER_HEIGHT:int = 20;
private static const LABEL_HEIGHT:int = 20;
private var _data:Object;
private var _label:Label;
private var _header:Label;
private var _listData:BaseListData;
public function MyRowRenderer() {
super();
}
[Bindable("dataChange")]
public function get data():Object {
return _data;
}
public function set data(value:Object):void {
this._data = value;
invalidateProperties();
dispatchEvent(new FlexEvent(FlexEvent.DATA_CHANGE));
}
[Bindable("dataChange")]
public function get listData():BaseListData {
return _listData;
}
public function set listData(value:BaseListData):void {
_listData = value;
}
override protected function createChildren():void {
super.createChildren();
_header = new Label();
addChild(_header);
_label = new Label();
addChild(_label);
}
override protected function measure():void {
super.measure();
if (_label == null || _header == null) {
return;
}
var h:Number = LABEL_HEIGHT;
if (_listData.rowIndex == 0) {
h += HEADER_HEIGHT;
}
explicitHeight = measuredHeight = height = h;
}
override protected function commitProperties():void {
super.commitProperties();
_label.text = _data.label;
_header.text = _data.header;
}
override protected function updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth:Number, unscaledHeight:Number):void {
super.updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight);
_header.visible = _header.includeInLayout = (_listData.rowIndex == 0);
if (_header.visible) {
_header.move(0, 0);
_header.setActualSize(unscaledWidth, HEADER_HEIGHT);
_label.move(0, HEADER_HEIGHT);
_label.setActualSize(unscaledWidth, LABEL_HEIGHT);
} else {
_label.move(0, 0);
_label.setActualSize(unscaledWidth, LABEL_HEIGHT);
}
}
}
}
I ended up creating a subclass of List and overriding the shiftRow function to dispatch a custom RowIndexChangeEvent. In the row renderer's set listData it adds an event listener to the owner for the RowIndexChangeEvent and invalidates it's properties, size and displaylist.
I'm not able to set the Label of List Control which I first save to SQLite database and then show that as lebelField of List control my code is following :

Please tell me how to set labelField according to SQLite nameofcity column thanks in advance
You need to display nameofcity means set LabelField property for spark list like following
<s:VGroup width="100%" height="100%">
<s:List id="list_of_cities" height="100%" width="100%" labelField="nameofcity" change="myList_changeHandler();"
dataProvider="{DataModel.getInstance().cityList}">
</s:List>
if it shows [object CityValueObject] then create custom ItemRenderer then override data method
override public function set data(value:Object):void
{
super.data = value;
var vo:CityValueObject=value as CityValueObject;
lblCityName.text = vo.nameofcity.toString();
}
All other code is correct, but mistake is that I placed
for(var count:uint=0;count<result.data.length;count++)
{
var cityVO:CityValueObject = new CityValueObject();
cityVO.id = result.data[count].id;
//cityVO.nameofcity = result.data[count].city; // Here I should Have written like
cityVO.nameofcity = result.data[count].nameofcity;// this works as I needed
DataModel.getInstance().cityList.addItem(cityVO);
}

Update
I removed my mouse down handler from the datagrid and removed the cusom component. Clicking on a item in the datagrid makes the datagrid scroll so that the item selected appears first in the list. This is the behaviour I need to stop.
I'm using the Swiz framework and I'm trying to update my viewstack's selectedIndex with a bindable property. It gets to my event handler which updates the bindable variable but the Main app file's viewstack never realizes it. What could be the issue?

I got bit by this problem just last week.
Put your [Bindable] tag before the other tags. For some reason the Flex compiler doesn't fold in the appropriate PropertyChangeEvent dispatching unless you put the [Bindable] tag first.
