[flexcoders] Re: Constraining a grid other then with an absolute height.
Hi Ian,
The first example was almost correct. This will work:
mx:DataGrid height={parentPanel.height-50}/
Change parentPanel to the id of your panel.

Is there some way to constrain the grid to a certain section

still not allow it to grow in relationship to the number and

Yeah Tim, that worked. height={panel1.height
- 160} Now the really cool trick would be have the 160 be based on the
height of the two controls above the grid. But for now, this is great.
Now I am off to the biggest chalenge to

Easy enough. height="{panel1.height-control1.height-control2.height}". I have a simple sample for states, with a transition here:

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Constraining a grid other then with an absolute height.
I’m not having much luck with this. If I put it like you suggest I get
an error about not allowing strings here.
{parentPanel.measuredHeight}-50
If I move the bracket, the error is not thrown, but my grid does not
show up.
{parentPanel.measuredHeight-50}
Ian,
The code should have been:
mx:DataGrid height={parentPanel.measuredHeight}-50/

Hi Ian,
Still pluggin along I see. I'd be intrested to see your code when
your
done.
You could base the height of the grid on the panel container.
Adjust
the height to compensate for the other controls in the panel above
the
grid.
mx:DataGrid height={myPanel.Height}-50 /

I have a calendar of events type application I am building as a
proposal to redo a venerable application with flex.
I have the basic main page constructed and it work well with
just one
minor annoyance. The main display consists of an absolute
application
containing a single Panel. This panel is constrained to 25 pixels
from
the top, bottom, left and right edges of the application container.
The panel is also configured as an absolute layout, containing
an HBox
container with navigation controls positioned at the top, a small
grid
of the days of the week (Monday, Tuesday, ect.) below the HBox.
Then
comes the meat of the display, a second grid containing all the
days of
the displayed month each showing a list of events.
This grid is where I am having difficulty. If I give it an
absolute
height (300) it works the way I want in that a scroll bar is
generated
allowing the user the scroll through all the days and events
inside the
300 pixel high box in the middle of the application. But then it
is hard
coded to 300 pixels high meaning that if the browser display is
large
enough a portion of the panel space is blank because the grid can
not
expand to fill it.
But if I give the grid less absolute positioning, either
percentages
or position it's edges (top, bottom, ect) within the panel, the
size is
not enforced. The entire application is expanded to contain all
the days
and events and the entire application then scrolls. Thus losing the
navigation controls off the top of the browser canvas when the user
scrolls down.
Is there some way to constrain the grid to a certain section of
the
panel so that it grows and shrinks in relationship to the panel but
still not allow it to grow in relationship to the number and size
of the
rows and cells inside it?
