Drag and Drop from DataGrid or AdvancedDataGrid to Tree
December 16, 2009
One of the coolest things in Flex is the ability to create Drag and Drop operations very easily. For List base controls like the List and DataGrid / AdvancedDataGrid, it works out of the box, just set the dragEnabled property of the source and the dropEnabled property of the other and it’s already working. Dragging and Dropping to a Tree however, does not work by simply setting the dropEnabled property. The following example shows you how you can drag items from a DataGrid / AdvancedDataGrid to a Tree.

Besides displaying Trees, SummaryRows and stuff like that, the AdvancedDataGrid has another nice feature the standard DataGrid doesn’t have: a styleFunction! Using that we can style the label as we like for each column in each row. Take a look at the following example to find out how its done.

A Flex Builder Pro license adds some cool additional components to the standard collection. Examples are charts and the AdvancedDataGrid control, which i’m gonna use in this example. Adobe defines the AdvancedDataGrid as follows:
The AdvancedDataGrid control expands on the functionality of the standard DataGrid control to add data visualization features to your Adobe Flex application. These features provide greater control of data display, data aggregation, and data formatting. The AdvancedDataGrid control is like a List control except that it can show more than one column of data, making it suited for showing objects with multiple properties.
