Setting background color for datagrid row in Adobe Flex

Question

I need to programmatically change the background color for a single row in a datagrid in Flex. I\'ve scoured the Net and found reference to \"dg.setPropertiesAt,\" which is

Answer 1

I managed it by extending the DataGrid class and creating my own method, like this:

public function paintRow(rowNumber:Number,color:uint):void{
var rowBGs:Sprite=Sprite(listContent.getChildByName("rowBGs"));
drawRowBackground(rowBGs,rowNumber,listContent.rowInfo[rowNumber].y,listContent.rowInfo[rowNumber].height,color,null);
}

This was inspired by the drawRowBackgrounds method of the datagrid class.

Hope it helps.
