RE: [flexcoders] Changing the background color of row in datagrid

[Parekh, Shweta - BLS CTR]

Title: Message

Darron,

 

I did use setPropertiesAt function as you have suggested. But my problem is that

when I use it the way you have suggested, employee_dg.setPropertiesAt(rowInd, {backgroundColor:0xFFF00});

the bg color of the row does not change instanlty. I have to click somewhere in the datagrid for the color change to take place whereas when I hard code the row index ie. employee_dg.setPropertiesAt(1, {backgroundColor:0xFFF00}); the bg color is changed instantly. I need not click on the datagrid for it to do it. Could you tell me why?

 

Attached is a sample app to see this peculiar behavior..

 

Thanks,

Shweta

This should probably be added the to FAQ as it gets asked a lot:

// Use "setPropertiesAt" to set the background color of an individual row:
theListOrGrid.setPropertiesAt( rowIndex, { backgroundColor: 0xFF0000 } );
