Constant

public static const ITEM_EDIT_BEGIN:String = "itemEditBegin"

The AdvancedDataGridEvent.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.
Sets 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:

Call preventDefault() to stop Flex from calling the createItemEditor() method as part of the default event listener.
Set the itemEditor property to the appropriate editor.
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 AdvancedDataGrid object's `columns` array.

`type`	AdvancedDataGridEvent.ITEM_EDIT_BEGIN

ITEM_EDIT_BEGINNING

Constant

public static const ITEM_EDIT_BEGINNING:String = "itemEditBeginning"

The AdvancedDataGridEvent.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 AdvancedDataGrid.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 AdvancedDataGrid 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.
`item`	The AdvancedDataGrid item (node) that closed.
`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
`multiColumnSort`	`false`
`reason`	null
`removeColumnFromSort`	`false`
`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.
`triggerEvent`	If the node closed in response to a user action, identifies it as a keyboard action or a mouse action.
`type`	AdvancedDataGridEvent.ITEM_EDIT_BEGINNING

ITEM_EDIT_END

Constant

public static const ITEM_EDIT_END:String = "itemEditEnd"

The AdvancedDataGridEvent.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 AdvancedDataGridColumn 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 AdvancedDataGrid 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.
`item`	The AdvancedDataGrid item (node) that closed.
`itemRenderer`	The item renderer for the item that is being edited.
`localX`	NaN
`multiColumnSort`	`false`
`reason`	A constant defining the reason for the event. The value must be a member of the `AdvancedDataGridEventReason` class.
`removeColumnFromSort`	`false`
`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.
`triggerEvent`	If the node closed in response to a user action, identifies it as a keyboard action or a mouse action.

`reason`	null
`removeColumnFromSort`	`false`
`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.
`triggerEvent`	If the node closed in response to a user action, identifies it as a keyboard action or a mouse action.
`type`	AdvancedDataGridEvent.ITEM_FOCUS_IN

`localX`	NaN
`multiColumnSort`	`false`
`removeColumnFromSort`	`false`
`rowIndex`	-1
`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`	If the item (node) opened in response to a user action, identifies it as a keyboard action or a mouse action.
`type`	AdvancedDataGridEvent.ITEM_OPEN

ITEM_OPENING

Constant

public static const ITEM_OPENING:String = "itemOpening"

The AdvancedDataGridEvent.ITEM_OPENING event type constant is dispatched immediately before a AdvancedDataGrid opens or closes.

Property	Value
`animate`	Whether to animate the opening or closing operation.
`bubbles`	`false`
`cancelable`	`true`
`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`.
`dispatchEvent`	Whether to dispatch an `ITEM_OPEN` or `ITEM_CLOSE` event after the open or close animation is complete. true
`item`	The AdvancedDataGrid node that opened.
`itemRenderer`	The ListItemRenderer for the item (node) that opened.
`localX`	NaN
`multiColumnSort`	`false`
`removeColumnFromSort`	`false`
`rowIndex`	-1
`opening`	`true` if the item is opening, false if it is closing.
`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`	If the item opened in response to a user action, identifies it as a keyboard action or a mouse action.
`type`	AdvancedDataGridEvent.ITEM_OPENING

SORT

Constant

public static const SORT:String = "sort"

The AdvancedDataGridEvent.SORT constant defines the value of the type property of the event object for a sort event. The AdvancedDataGrid control performs sorting based on the value of the dataField and multiColumnSort properties.

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 AdvancedDataGrid 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.
`multiColumnSort`	If `true`, indicates that the new `dataField` property should be used along with whatever sorting is already in use, resulting in a multicolumn sort. If `false`, any sorting present should be removed, and a fresh sorting should be done for the new `dataField` property.
`removeColumnFromSort`	`false`
`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`	If the node closed in response to a user action, identifies it as a keyboard action or a mouse action.
`type`	AdvancedDataGridEvent.SORT
