Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

The AdvancedDataGrid control expands on the functionality of the standard DataGrid control to add data visualization features to your Adobe Flex application. These features provide greater control of data display, data aggregation, and data formatting. The AdvancedDataGrid control is like a List control except that it can show more than one column of data, making it suited for showing objects with multiple properties.

The AdvancedDataGrid control provides the following features:

  • Columns of different widths or identical fixed widths.
  • Columns that the user can resize at run time.
  • Columns that the user can reorder at run time.
  • Optional customizable column headers.
  • Ability to use a custom item renderer for any column to display data other than text.
  • Support for sorting the data by clicking on a column.

The AdvancedDataGrid control is intended for viewing data, and not as a layout tool like an HTML table. The mx.containers package provides those layout tools.

displayDisclosureIcon

property 
displayDisclosureIcon:Boolean

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Controls the creation and visibility of disclosure icons in the navigation tree. If false, disclosure icons are not displayed.

The default value is true.



Implementation
    public function get displayDisclosureIcon():Boolean
    public function set displayDisclosureIcon(value:Boolean):void

displayItemsExpanded

property 
displayItemsExpanded:Boolean

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

If true, expand the navigation tree to show all items. If a new branch is added, it will be shown expanded.

The default value is false.



Implementation
    public function get displayItemsExpanded():Boolean
    public function set displayItemsExpanded(value:Boolean):void

firstVisibleItem

property 
firstVisibleItem:Object

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

The data provider element that corresponds to the item that is currently displayed in the top row of the AdvancedDataGrid control. For example, based on how the branches have been opened, closed, and scrolled, the top row might be the ninth item in the list of currently viewable items, which represents some great-grandchild of the root node. Setting this property is analogous to setting the verticalScrollPosition of the List control.

If the item is not currently viewable (for example, because it is under a nonexpanded item), setting this property has no effect.

The default value is the first item in the AdvancedDataGrid control.

This property can be used as the source for data binding. When this property is modified, it dispatches the firstVisibleItemChanged event.



Implementation
    public function get firstVisibleItem():Object
    public function set firstVisibleItem(value:Object):void

groupedColumns

property 
groupedColumns:Array

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

An Array that defines the hierarchy of AdvancedDataGridColumn instances when performing column grouping. If you specify both the columns and groupedColumns properties, the control uses the groupedColumns property and ignores the columns property.



Implementation
    public function get groupedColumns():Array
    public function set groupedColumns(value:Array):void

groupIconFunction

property 
groupIconFunction:Function

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

A user-supplied callback function to run on each group item to determine its branch icon in the navigation tree. You can specify icons by using the itemIcons or setItemIcon properties if you have predetermined icons for data items. Use this callback function to determine the icon dynamically after examining the data.

The groupIconFunction takes the item in the data provider and its depth and returns a Class defining the icon, or null property to use the default icon. The callback function must have the following signature:

        groupIconFunction(item:Object,depth:int):Class

The default value is null.

This property can be used as the source for data binding. When this property is modified, it dispatches the groupIconFunctionChanged event.



Implementation
    public function get groupIconFunction():Function
    public function set groupIconFunction(value:Function):void

groupItemRenderer

property 
groupItemRenderer:IFactory

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Specifies the item renderer used to display the branch nodes in the navigation tree that correspond to groups. By default, it is an instance of the AdvancedDataGridGroupItemRenderer class.



Implementation
    public function get groupItemRenderer():IFactory
    public function set groupItemRenderer(value:IFactory):void

groupLabelFunction

property 
groupLabelFunction:Function

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

A callback function to run on each item to determine its label in the navigation tree. By default, the control looks for a property named label on each data provider item and displays it. However, some data sets do not have a label property, or have another property that can be used for displaying. An example is a data set that has lastName and firstName fields but you want to display full names.

You can supply a groupLabelFunction that finds the appropriate fields and returns a displayable string. The groupLabelFunction is also good for handling formatting and localization.

The method signature for the AdvancedDataGrid and AdvancedDataGridColumn classes is:

      myGroupLabelFunction(item:Object, column:AdvancedDataGridColumn):String

Where item contains the AdvancedDataGrid item object, and column specifies the AdvancedDataGrid column. The function returns a String containing the label.

The default value is null.

This property can be used as the source for data binding. When this property is modified, it dispatches the groupLabelFunctionChanged event.



Implementation
    public function get groupLabelFunction():Function
    public function set groupLabelFunction(value:Function):void

groupRowHeight

property 
groupRowHeight:Number

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

The height of the grouped row, in pixels.



Implementation
    public function get groupRowHeight():Number
    public function set groupRowHeight(value:Number):void

hierarchicalCollectionView

property 
hierarchicalCollectionView:IHierarchicalCollectionView

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

The IHierarchicalCollectionView instance used by the control.

The default value is an internal instance of the HierarchicalCollectionView class.



Implementation
    public function get hierarchicalCollectionView():IHierarchicalCollectionView
    public function set hierarchicalCollectionView(value:IHierarchicalCollectionView):void

See also

highlightColumnIndex

property 
protected var highlightColumnIndex:int = -1

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

The column index of the item that is currently rolled over or under the cursor.

itemIcons

property 
public var itemIcons:Object

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

An object that specifies the icons for the items. Each entry in the object has a field name that is the item UID and a value that is an object with the following format:

      {iconID: Class, iconID2: Class}
      
The iconID field value is the class of the icon for a closed or leaf item and the iconID2 is the class of the icon for an open item.

This property is intended to allow initialization of item icons. Changes to this array after initialization are not detected automatically. Use the setItemIcon() method to change icons dynamically.

The default value is undefined.

See also

lockedColumnCount

property 
lockedColumnCount:int[override]

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

The index of the first column in the control that scrolls. Columns to the left of this one remain fixed in view.

When using column groups, a column group is considered to be a single column. For example, if you set this property to 2, and the left-most two column groups contain two and three children, respectively, then you have effectively locked the first five columns of the control.



Implementation
    override public function get lockedColumnCount():int
    override public function set lockedColumnCount(value:int):void

lockedRowCount

property 
lockedRowCount:int[override]

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

The index of the first row in the control that scrolls. Rows above this one remain fixed in view.

The default value is 0.



Implementation
    override public function get lockedRowCount():int
    override public function set lockedRowCount(value:int):void

rendererProviders

property 
rendererProviders:Array

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Array of AdvancedDataGridRendererProvider instances. You can use several renderer providers to specify custom item renderers used for particular data, at a particular depth of the navigation tree, or with column spanning or row spanning.



Implementation
    public function get rendererProviders():Array
    public function set rendererProviders(value:Array):void

selectedCells

property 
selectedCells:Array

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Contains an Array of cell locations as row and column indices. Changing the value of the selectionMode property sets this property to null.

Note that these row and column indices are absolute values, irrespective of the display. This is explained by a typical selectedCells property setting as follows:

      selectedCells = [ { rowIndex : r1, columnIndex : c1 },
                        { rowIndex : r2, columnIndex : c2 },
                        ... ]

Then, dataProvider[r1], columns[c1], dataProvider[r2], columns[c2], etc. will always be valid.

If you want to programmatically change the set of selected cells, you must get this Array, make modifications to the cells and order of cells in the Array, and then assign the new array to the selectedCells property. This is because the AdvancedDataGrid control returns a new copy of the Array of selectedCells and therefore does not notice the changes.

The value of the selectionMode property determines the data in the rowIndex and columnIndex properties, as the following table describes:

selectionModeValue of rowIndex and columnIndex properties
noneNo selection allowed in the control, and selectedCells is null.
singleRow Click any cell in the row to select the row. After the selection, selectedCells contains a single Object:

[{rowIndex:selectedRowIndex, columnIndex: -1}]

multipleRowsClick any cell in the row to select the row. While holding down the Control key, click any cell in another row to select the row for discontiguous selection. While holding down the Shift key, click any cell in another row to select multiple, contiguous rows. After the selection, selectedCells contains one Object for each selected row:

[ {rowIndex: selectedRowIndex1, columnIndex: -1}, {rowIndex: selectedRowIndex2, columnIndex: -1}, ... {rowIndex: selectedRowIndexN, columnIndex: -1} ]

singleCellClick any cell to select the cell. After the selection, selectedCells contains a single Object:

[{rowIndex: selectedRowIndex, columnIndex:selectedColIndex}]

multipleCellsClick any cell to select the cell. While holding down the Control key, click any cell to select the cell multiple discontiguous selection. While holding down the Shift key, click any cell to select multiple, contiguous cells. After the selection, selectedCells contains one Object for each selected cell:

[ {rowIndex: selectedRowIndex1, columnIndex: selectedColIndex1}, {rowIndex: selectedRowIndex2, columnIndex: selectedColIndex2}, ... {rowIndex: selectedRowIndexN, columnIndex: selectedColIndexN} ]



Implementation
    public function get selectedCells():Array
    public function set selectedCells(value:Array):void

selectedColumnIndex

property 
protected var selectedColumnIndex:int = -1

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 3
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

The column of the selected cell. Used in conjunction with selectedIndex property to determine the column and row indices of the selected cell.

        <mx:AdvancedDataGrid 
           width="100%" height="100%"
           treeColumn="{rep}"> 
           <mx:dataProvider>
