Understanding Flex itemRenderers

Apr 4, 2009 AIR, Flex, General, Tutorials

Flex provides a number of controls to display large amounts data in a variety of ways. There is the List control itself, the DataGrid, the Tree, and the visualization classes, which include the charts and the AdvancedDataGrid. By default, the Flex list controls display the data they are given as simple text.

But Flex is capable of much more, and the list controls provide a way to customize their content using itemRenderers. By giving you complete control over the content of each row (or cell) of a list using itemRenderers, Flex enables you to write more engaging, more creative, and more useful applications than ever before.

This series Peter Ent discusses Flex itemRenderers and how to use them effectively and efficiently.

Series includes the following articles:

Part 1: Inline renderers

Part 2: External renderers

Part 3: Communication

Part 4: States and transitions

Part 5: Efficiency
