Flex Advanced Data Grid remove item
This shouldn't have taken me this long to figure this out... it is really quite simple actually. I have an AdvancedDataGrid with a Hierarchical data provider. I have a delete button. The behavior I want is when the user clicks the delete button whatever row is highlighted (selected) in the ADG is removed. To do this you need to use two methods. The first is the removeChild method. Use this on the dataprovider of the ADG. It takes two arguments, the parent node, and the object to be removed. IF you're object is at the top mode, pass null for the parent node argument. removeChild(parent,object) The second is the getParentItem method. This method, you guessed it, returns the parent of the item passed to it. getParentItem(Object); Use them together to remove the selected item in your ADG. myADG.dataProvider.removeChild( myADG.dataProvider.getParentItem(myADG.selectedItem), myADG.selectedItem ); Note, make sure your data provider is bound to the ADG.
