hi,

you can use this code to get the columns headerText,
but actually:this is working if only the all columns width are equaled.
if each column group have different width so you need to optimize the code.


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import mx.events.MoveEvent;
import mx.controls.Alert;

private function clickHandler(e:MouseEvent):void
{
var calc:Number=Math.floor(e.currentTarget.mouseX/adg.columns[0].width);
Alert.show(adg.columns[calc].headerText+"");
}
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:AdvancedDataGrid x="135" y="93" id="adg" designViewDataType="tree" click="{clickHandler(event);}">
<mx:columns>
<mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn headerText="Column 1" dataField="col1" width="100"/>
<mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn headerText="Column 2" dataField="col2" width="100"/>
<mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn headerText="Column 3" dataField="col3" width="100"/>
</mx:columns>
</mx:AdvancedDataGrid>
</mx:Application>

Thats odd, if you are listening to DataGridEvent.HEADER_RELEASE then you should get the handle to the target and all its properties.

I have another idea - you can write your own header renderer and pass that to the grid. That way you can code "Click" to do whatever you want it to do.
