DataGrid

Package | mx.controls
Class | public class DataGrid
Inheritance | DataGrid DataGridBase ListBase ScrollControlBase UIComponent FlexSprite flash.display.Sprite
Implements | IIMESupport
Subclasses | FileSystemDataGrid, PrintDataGrid

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

| Starting with Flex 4.5, Apache recommends that you use the spark.components.DataGrid class as an alternative to this class.

The `DataGrid` control is like a List except that it can show more than one column of data making it suited for showing objects with multiple properties.

The DataGrid control provides the following features:

- Columns of different widths or identical fixed widths
- Columns that the user can resize at runtime
- Columns that the user can reorder at runtime
- 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 DataGrid control is intended for viewing data, and not as a layout tool like an HTML table. The mx.containers package provides those layout tools.

The DataGrid control has the following default sizing characteristics:

Characteristic | Description
--- | ---
Default size | If the columns are empty, the default width is 300 pixels. If the columns contain information but define no explicit widths, the default width is 100 pixels per column. The DataGrid width is sized to fit the width of all columns, if possible. The default number of displayed rows, including the header is 7, and each row, by default, is 20 pixels high.
Minimum size | 0 pixels.
Maximum size | 5000 by 5000.

Property Detail

columns | property

`columns:Array`[override]

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

An array of DataGridColumn objects, one for each column that can be displayed. If not explicitly set, the DataGrid control attempts to examine the first data provider item to determine the set of properties and display those properties in alphabetic order.

If you want to change the set of columns, you must get this array, make modifications to the columns and order of columns in the array, and then assign the new array to the columns property. This is because the DataGrid control returned a new copy of the array of columns and therefore did not notice the changes.

This property can be used as the source for data binding.

Implementation
`public function get columns():Array`
`public function set columns(value:Array):void`

draggableColumns | property |

`draggableColumns:Boolean`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

A flag that indicates whether the user is allowed to reorder columns. If `true`, the user can reorder the columns of the DataGrid control by dragging the header cells.

The default value is `true`.

Implementation
`public function get draggableColumns():Boolean`
`public function set draggableColumns(value:Boolean):void`

editable | property |

`editable:Boolean`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

A flag that indicates whether or not the user can edit items in the data provider. If `true`, the item renderers in the control are editable. The user can click on an item renderer to open an editor.

You can turn off editing for individual columns of the DataGrid control using the `DataGridColumn.editable` property, or by handling the `itemEditBeginning` and `itemEditBegin` events

The default value is `false`.

Implementation
`public function get editable():Boolean`
`public function set editable(value:Boolean):void`

editedItemPosition | property |

`editedItemPosition:Object`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

The column and row index of the item renderer for the data provider item being edited, if any.

This Object has two fields, `columnIndex` and `rowIndex`, the zero-based column and row indexes of the item. For example: {columnIndex:2, rowIndex:3}

Setting this property scrolls the item into view and dispatches the `itemEditBegin` event to open an item editor on the specified item renderer.

The default value is `null`.

This property can be used as the source for data binding.

Implementation
`public function get editedItemPosition():Object`
`public function set editedItemPosition(value:Object):void`

editedItemRenderer | property |

`editedItemRenderer:IListItemRenderer` [read-only]

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

A reference to the item renderer in the DataGrid control whose item is currently being edited.

From within an event listener for the `itemEditBegin` and `itemEditEnd` events, you can access the current value of the item being edited using the `editedItemRenderer.data` property.

Implementation
`public function get editedItemRenderer():IListItemRenderer`

enableIME | property |

`enableIME:Boolean` [read-only]

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 4

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

A flag that indicates whether the IME should be enabled when the component receives focus. If the editor is up, it will set enableIME accordingly.

Implementation
`public function get enableIME():Boolean`

horizontalScrollPosition | property |

`horizontalScrollPosition:Number`[override]

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

The offset into the content from the left edge. This can be a pixel offset in some subclasses or some other metric like the number of columns in a DataGrid control. The DataGrid scrolls by columns so the value of the `horizontalScrollPosition` property is always in the range of 0 to the index of the columns that will make the last column visible. This is different from the List control that scrolls by pixels. The DataGrid control always aligns the left edge of a column with the left edge of the DataGrid control.

Implementation
`public function get horizontalScrollPosition():Number`
`public function set horizontalScrollPosition(value:Number):void`

imeMode | property |

`imeMode:String`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Specifies the IME (input method editor) mode. The IME enables users to enter text in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. Flex sets the specified IME mode when the control gets the focus, and sets it back to the previous value when the control loses the focus.

The flash.system.IMEConversionMode class defines constants for the valid values for this property. You can also specify `null` to specify no IME.

The default value is `null`.

Implementation
`public function get imeMode():String`
`public function set imeMode(value:String):void`

See also

flash.system.IMEConversionMode

itemEditorInstance | property |

`public var itemEditorInstance:IListItemRenderer`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

A reference to the currently active instance of the item editor, if it exists.

To access the item editor instance and the new item value when an item is being edited, you use the `itemEditorInstance` property. The `itemEditorInstance` property is not valid until after the event listener for the `itemEditBegin` event executes. Therefore, you typically only access the `itemEditorInstance` property from within the event listener for the `itemEditEnd` event.

The `DataGridColumn.itemEditor` property defines the class of the item editor and, therefore, the data type of the item editor instance.

You do not set this property in MXML.

minColumnWidth | property |

`minColumnWidth:Number`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

The minimum width of the columns, in pixels. If not NaN, the DataGrid control applies this value as the minimum width for all columns. Otherwise, individual columns can have their own minimum widths.

The default value is `NaN`.

Implementation
`public function get minColumnWidth():Number`
`public function set minColumnWidth(value:Number):void`

resizableColumns | property |

`public var resizableColumns:Boolean = true`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

A flag that indicates whether the user can change the size of the columns. If `true`, the user can stretch or shrink the columns of the DataGrid control by dragging the grid lines between the header cells. If `true`, individual columns must also have their `resizable` properties set to `false` to prevent the user from resizing a particular column.

The default value is `true`.

sortableColumns | property |

`public var sortableColumns:Boolean = true`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

A flag that indicates whether the user can sort the data provider items by clicking on a column header cell. If `true`, the user can sort the data provider items by clicking on a column header cell. The `DataGridColumn.dataField` property of the column or the `DataGridColumn.sortCompareFunction` property of the column is used as the sort field. If a column is clicked more than once the sort alternates between ascending and descending order. If `true`, individual columns can be made to not respond to a click on a header by setting the column's `sortable` property to `false`.

When a user releases the mouse button over a header cell, the DataGrid control dispatches a `headerRelease` event if both this property and the column's sortable property are `true`. If no handler calls the `preventDefault()` method on the event, the DataGrid sorts using that column's `DataGridColumn.dataField` or `DataGridColumn.sortCompareFunction` properties.

The default value is `true`.

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Draws a row background at the position and height specified using the color specified. This implementation creates a Shape as a child of the input Sprite and fills it with the appropriate color. This method also uses the `backgroundAlpha` style property setting to determine the transparency of the background color.

Parameters

| `s:Sprite` — A Sprite that will contain a display object that contains the graphics for that row.
| `rowIndex:int` — The row's index in the set of displayed rows. The header does not count, the top most visible row has a row index of 0.

isItemEditable | () | method |

`public function isItemEditable(data:Object):Boolean`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Determines whether to allow editing of a dataprovider item on a per-row basis. The default implementation of this method only checks the `editable` property of the DataGrid and returns `false` if `editable` is `false` or if the dataprovider item is `null`.

This method can be overridden to allow fine-grained control of which dataprovider items are editable. For example, if you want to disallow editing of grouping rows or summary rows you would override this method with custom logic to this behavior.

Parameters

| `data:Object` — The data provider item. The default implementation of this method returns `false` if the data object is `null`.

Returns

| `Boolean` — The default behavior is to return `true` if the DataGrid's `editable` property is `true` and the data object is not `null`.

placeSortArrow | () | method |

`protected function placeSortArrow():void`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Draws the sort arrow graphic on the column that is the current sort key. This implementation creates or reuses an instance of the skin specified by `sortArrowSkin` style property and places it in the appropriate column header. It also shrinks the size of the column header if the text in the header would be obscured by the sort arrow.

scrollPositionToIndex | () | method |

`override protected function scrollPositionToIndex(horizontalScrollPosition:int, verticalScrollPosition:int):int`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Returns the data provider index for the item at the first visible row and column for the given scroll positions.

Parameters

| `horizontalScrollPosition:int` — The `horizontalScrollPosition` property value corresponding to the scroll position.
| `verticalScrollPosition:int` — The `verticalScrollPosition` property value corresponding to the scroll position.

Returns

| `int` — The data provider index.

scrollVertically | () | method |

`override protected function scrollVertically(pos:int, deltaPos:int, scrollUp:Boolean):void`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Adjusts the renderers in response to a change in scroll position.

The list classes attempt to optimize scrolling when the scroll position has changed by less than the number of visible rows. In that situation some rows are unchanged and just need to be moved, other rows are removed and then new rows are added. If the scroll position changes too much, all old rows are removed and new rows are added by calling the `makeRowsAndColumns()` method for the entire viewable area.

Parameters

| `pos:int` — The new scroll position.
| `deltaPos:int` — The change in position. This value is always a positive number.
| `scrollUp:Boolean` — `true` if the scroll position is getting smaller.

Event Detail

columnStretch | Event

Event Object Type: `mx.events.DataGridEvent`
DataGridEvent.type property = `mx.events.DataGridEvent.COLUMN_STRETCH`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Dispatched when a user changes the width of a column, indicating that the amount of data displayed in that column may have changed. If `horizontalScrollPolicy` is `"off"`, other columns shrink or expand to compensate for the columns' resizing, and they also dispatch this event.

The DataGridEvent.COLUMN_STRETCH constant defines the value of the `type` property of the event object for a `columnStretch` event, which indicates that a user expanded a column horizontally.

The properties of the event object have the following values:

Property | Value
--- | ---
`bubbles` | false
`cancelable` | false
`columnIndex` | The zero-based index of the item's column in the DataGrid object's `columns` array.
`currentTarget` | The Object that defines the event listener that handles the event. For example, if you use `myButton.addEventListener()` to register an event listener, myButton is the value of the `currentTarget`.
`dataField` | The name of the field or property in the data associated with the column.
`itemRenderer` | null
`localX` | the x position of the mouse
`reason` | null
`rowIndex` | The zero-based index of the item in the data provider.
`target` | The Object that dispatched the event; it is not always the Object listening for the event. Use the `currentTarget` property to always access the Object listening for the event.
`type` | DataGridEvent.COLUMN_STRETCH

headerRelease | Event |

Event Object Type: `mx.events.DataGridEvent`
DataGridEvent.type property = `mx.events.DataGridEvent.HEADER_RELEASE`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Dispatched when the user releases the mouse button on a column header to request the control to sort the grid contents based on the contents of the column. Only dispatched if the column is sortable and the data provider supports sorting. The DataGrid control has a default handler for this event that implements a single-column sort. Multiple-column sort can be implemented by calling the `preventDefault()` method to prevent the single column sort and setting the `sort` property of the data provider.

Note: The sort arrows are defined by the default event handler for the headerRelease event. If you call the `preventDefault()` method in your event handler, the arrows are not drawn.

The DataGridEvent.HEADER_RELEASE constant defines the value of the `type` property of the event object for a `headerRelease` event, which indicates that the user pressed and released the mouse on a column header.

The properties of the event object have the following values:

Property | Value
--- | ---
`bubbles` | false
`cancelable` | true
`columnIndex` | The zero-based index of the item's column in the DataGrid object's `columns` array.
`currentTarget` | The Object that defines the event listener that handles the event. For example, if you use `myButton.addEventListener()` to register an event listener, myButton is the value of the `currentTarget`.
`dataField` | The name of the field or property in the data associated with the column.
`itemRenderer` | The header renderer that is being released.
`localX` | NaN
`reason` | null
`rowIndex` | null
`target` | The Object that dispatched the event; it is not always the Object listening for the event. Use the `currentTarget` property to always access the Object listening for the event.
`type` | DataGridEvent.HEADER_RELEASE

headerShift | Event |

Event Object Type: `mx.events.IndexChangedEvent`
IndexChangedEvent.type property = `mx.events.IndexChangedEvent.HEADER_SHIFT`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Dispatched when the user releases the mouse button on a column header after having dragged the column to a new location resulting in shifting the column to a new index.

The IndexChangedEvent.HEADER_SHIFT constant defines the value of the `type` property of the event object for a `headerShift` event, which indicates that a header has changed its index, as when a user drags a DataGrid column to a new position.

The properties of the event object have the following values:

Property | Value
--- | ---
`bubbles` | false
`cancelable` | false
`currentTarget` | The Object that defines the event listener that handles the event. For example, if you use `myButton.addEventListener()` to register an event listener, myButton is the value of the `currentTarget`.
`inputType` | Indicates whether this event was caused by a mouse or keyboard interaction.
`newIndex` | The zero-based index of the header after the change.
`oldIndex` | The zero-based index of the header before the change.
`relatedObject` | null
`target` | The Object that dispatched the event; it is not always the Object listening for the event. Use the `currentTarget` property to always access the Object listening for the event.
`TriggerEvent` | The event that triggered this event.
`Type` | IndexChangedEvent.HEADER_SHIFT

itemEditBegin | Event |

Event Object Type: `mx.events.DataGridEvent`
DataGridEvent.type property = `mx.events.DataGridEvent.ITEM_EDIT_BEGIN`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Dispatched when the `editedItemPosition` property has been set and the item can be edited.

The DataGridEvent.ITEM_EDIT_BEGIN constant defines the value of the `type` property of the event object for a `itemEditBegin` event, which indicates that an item is ready to be edited.

The default listener for this event performs the following actions:

- Creates an item editor object by using a call to the `createItemEditor()` method.
- Copies the `data` property from the item to the editor. By default, the item editor object is an instance of the TextInput control. You use the `itemEditor` property of the list control to specify a custom item editor class.
- Set the `itemEditorInstance` property of the list control to reference the item editor instance.

You can write an event listener for this event to modify the data passed to the item editor. For example, you might modify the data, its format, or other information used by the item editor.

You can also create an event listener to specify the item editor used to edit the item. For example, you might have two different item editors. Within the event listener you can examine the data to be edited or other information, and open the appropriate item editor by doing the following:

1. Call `preventDefault()` to stop Flex from calling the `createItemEditor()` method as part of the default event listener.
2. Set the `itemEditor` property to the appropriate editor.
3. Call the `createItemEditor()` method.

The properties of the event object have the following values:

Property | Value
--- | ---
`bubbles` | false
`cancelable` | true
`columnIndex` | The zero-based index of the item's column in the DataGrid object's `columns` array.
`currentTarget` | The Object that defines the event listener that handles the event. For example, if you use `myButton.addEventListener()` to register an event listener, myButton is the value of the `currentTarget`.
`dataField` | null
`itemRenderer` | The item renderer for the item that is being edited.
`localX` | NaN
`reason` | null
`rowIndex` | The zero-based index of the item in the data provider.
`target` | The Object that dispatched the event; it is not always the Object listening for the event. Use the `currentTarget` property to always access the Object listening for the event.
`type` | DataGridEvent.ITEM_EDIT_BEGIN

itemEditBeginning | Event |

Event Object Type: `mx.events.DataGridEvent`
DataGridEvent.type property = `mx.events.DataGridEvent.ITEM_EDIT_BEGINNING`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Dispatched when the user releases the mouse button while over an item renderer, tabs to the DataGrid control or within the DataGrid control, or in any other way attempts to edit an item.

The DataGridEvent.ITEM__EDIT_BEGINNING constant defines the value of the `type` property of the event object for a `itemEditBeginning` event, which indicates that the user has prepared to edit an item, for example, by releasing the mouse button over the item.

The default listener for this event sets the `DataGrid.editedItemPosition` property to the item that has focus, which starts the item editing session.

You typically write your own event listener for this event to disallow editing of a specific item or items. Calling the `preventDefault()` method from within your own event listener for this event prevents the default listener from executing.

The properties of the event object have the following values:

Property | Value
--- | ---
`bubbles` | false
`cancelable` | true
`columnIndex` | The zero-based index of the item's column in the DataGrid object's `columns` array.
`currentTarget` | The Object that defines the event listener that handles the event. For example, if you use `myButton.addEventListener()` to register an event listener, myButton is the value of the `currentTarget`.
`dataField` | The name of the field or property in the data associated with the item's column.
`itemRenderer` | The item renderer for the item that will be edited. This property is null if this event is generated by keyboard, as the item to be edited may be off-screen.
`localX` | NaN
`reason` | null
`rowIndex` | The zero-based index of the item in the data provider.
`target` | The Object that dispatched the event; it is not always the Object listening for the event. Use the `currentTarget` property to always access the Object listening for the event.
`type` | DataGridEvent.ITEM_EDIT_BEGINNING

itemEditEnd | Event |

Event Object Type: `mx.events.DataGridEvent`
DataGridEvent.type property = `mx.events.DataGridEvent.ITEM_EDIT_END`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Dispatched when an item editing session ends for any reason.

The DataGridEvent.ITEM_EDIT_END constant defines the value of the `type` property of the event object for a `itemEditEnd` event, which indicates that an edit session is ending.

The list components have a default handler for this event that copies the data from the item editor to the data provider of the list control. The default event listener performs the following actions:

- Uses the `editorDataField` property of the DataGridColumn associated with this event to determine the property of the item editor containing the new data and updates the data provider item with that new data. Since the default item editor is the TextInput control, the default value of the `editorDataField` property is `"text"`, to specify that the `text` property of the TextInput contains the new item data.
- Calls the `destroyItemEditor()` method to close the item editor.

You typically write an event listener for this event to perform the following actions:

- In your event listener, you can modify the data returned by the editor to the list component. For example, you can reformat the data before returning it to the list control. By default, an item editor can only return a single value. You must write an event listener for the `itemEditEnd` event if you want to return multiple values.
- In your event listener, you can examine the data entered into the item editor. If the data is incorrect, you can call the `preventDefault()` method to stop Flex from passing the new data back to the list control and from closing the editor.

The properties of the event object have the following values:

Property | Value
--- | ---
`bubbles` | false
`cancelable` | true
`columnIndex` | The zero-based index of the item's column in the DataGrid object's `columns` array.
`currentTarget` | The Object that defines the event listener that handles the event. For example, if you use `myButton.addEventListener()` to register an event listener, myButton is the value of the `currentTarget`.
`dataField` | The name of the field or property in the data associated with the item's column.
`itemRenderer` | The item renderer for the item that is being edited.
`localX` | NaN
`reason` | A constant defining the reason for the event. The value must be a member of the `DataGridEventReason` class.
`rowIndex` | The zero-based index of the item in the data provider.
`target` | The Object that dispatched the event; it is not always the Object listening for the event. Use the `currentTarget` property to always access the Object listening for the event.
`type` | DataGridEvent.ITEM_EDIT_END

itemEditorCreate | Event |

Event Object Type: `mx.events.DataGridEvent`
DataGridEvent.type property = `mx.events.DataGridEvent.ITEM_EDITOR_CREATE`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Dispatched when the item editor has just been instantiated.

The DataGridEvent.ITEM_EDITOR_CREATE constant defines the value of the `type` property of the event object for a `itemEditorCreate` event, which indicates that the datagrid has completed the creation of the item editor.

There is no default listener for this event.

You typically write your own event listener for this event to allow custom modifications to the `itemEditor` before the user can begin editing.

The properties of the event object have the following values:

Property | Value
--- | ---
`bubbles` | false
`cancelable` | true
`columnIndex` | The zero-based index of the item's column in the DataGrid object's `columns` array.
`currentTarget` | The Object that defines the event listener that handles the event. For example, if you use `myButton.addEventListener()` to register an event listener, myButton is the value of the `currentTarget`.
`dataField` | null
`itemRenderer` | null
`localX` | NaN
`reason` | null
`rowIndex` | The zero-based index of the item in the data provider.
`target` | The Object that dispatched the event; it is not always the Object listening for the event. Use the `currentTarget` property to always access the Object listening for the event.
`type` | DataGridEvent.ITEM_EDITOR_CREATE

itemFocusIn | Event |

Event Object Type: `mx.events.DataGridEvent`
DataGridEvent.type property = `mx.events.DataGridEvent.ITEM_FOCUS_IN`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Dispatched when an item renderer gets focus, which can occur if the user clicks on an item in the DataGrid control or navigates to the item using a keyboard. Only dispatched if the item is editable.

The DataGridEvent.ITEM_FOCUS_IN constant defines the value of the `type` property of the event object for a `itemFocusIn` event, which indicates that an item has received the focus.

The properties of the event object have the following values:

Property | Value
--- | ---
`bubbles` | false
`cancelable` | false
`columnIndex` | The zero-based index of the item's column in the DataGrid object's `columns` array.
`currentTarget` | The Object that defines the event listener that handles the event. For example, if you use `myButton.addEventListener()` to register an event listener, myButton is the value of the `currentTarget`.
`dataField` | null
`itemRenderer` | The item editor instance for the item that is being edited.
`localX` | NaN
`reason` | null
`rowIndex` | The zero-based index of the item in the data provider.
`target` | The Object that dispatched the event; it is not always the Object listening for the event. Use the `currentTarget` property to always access the Object listening for the event.
`type` | DataGridEvent.ITEM_FOCUS_IN

itemFocusOut | Event |

Event Object Type: `mx.events.DataGridEvent`
DataGridEvent.type property = `mx.events.DataGridEvent.ITEM_FOCUS_OUT`

Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0

Product Version : | Flex 3

Runtime Versions : | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Dispatched when an item renderer loses focus, which can occur if the user clicks another item in the DataGrid control or clicks outside the control, or uses the keyboard to navigate to another item in the DataGrid control or outside the control. Only dispatched if the item is editable.

The DataGridEvent.ITEM_FOCUS_OUT constant defines the value of the `type` property of the event object for a `itemFocusOut` event, which indicates that an item has lost the focus.

The properties of the event object have the following values:

Property | Value
--- | ---
`bubbles` | false
`cancelable` | false
`columnIndex` | The zero-based index of the item's column in the DataGrid object's `columns` array.
`currentTarget` | The Object that defines the event listener that handles the event. For example, if you use `myButton.addEventListener()` to register an event listener, myButton is the value of the `currentTarget`.
`dataField` | null
`itemRenderer` | The item editor instance for the item that is being edited.
`localX` | NaN
`reason` | null
`rowIndex` | The zero-based index of the item in the data provider.
`target` | The Object that dispatched the event; it is not always the Object listening for the event. Use the `currentTarget` property to always access the Object listening for the event.
`type` | DataGridEvent.ITEM_FOCUS_OUT
