Thanks! That fixed most of my problems, and could fix my "sort arrow" problem when I get to it.
But I'm having an absurd amount of trouble drawing a thick horizontal line under the headers. The best I could do was add a Shape object to the display list in the header renderer, but that had gaps in it where the header separators were, and interacted very poorly with word wrap. Any ideas? Should I be overriding the AdvancedDataGrid's renderer? --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "Pan Troglodytes" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Check out the help for AdvancedDataGridHeaderRenderer.
