Re: [flexcoders] Filter using ComboBox HeaderRenderer in DataGrid

2007-01-03 Thread Ben Marchbanks
headerRenderer probably behaves the same as 
itemRenderers in that they are children of the 
parent document from which they "spring"

In that case you would refer to the actionScript 
in the parent document using the parent prefix

this.parentDocument.myActionScript();

[flexcoders] Filter using ComboBox HeaderRenderer in DataGrid

2007-01-03 Thread loisgh
Hi All, 

I have a datagrid with a combobox in the Header field.  I need to know
how to use this as a filter.  I'm working with an example of a combobox
that acts as a filter to a datagrid.  This works perfectly.  I also know
how to put the combobox in the header of a datagrid using a
headerRenderer.  I don't know how to make the filter work once its in
the datagrid header.  Part of the problem is that the combobox has to be
in a separate MXML file.  Once its separate I can't (or don't know how)
to reference its properties in script.  I'm including the code at the
bottom.  I've had to comment out a lot of the script in order to get
this to work.   

Thanks in advance for any of your help. 

Lois
