Get all Grid Cell Widgets

[terciofilho]

I need to get every Cell widget in a Grid, I did this:



this.grid.addListener(Events.ViewReady, new com.extjs.gxt.ui.client.event.Listener<GridEvent<ModelData>>()
{
public void handleEvent(final GridEvent<ModelData> be)
{
final int columns = be.getGrid().getColumnModel().getColumnCount();
final int[] maxWidth = new int[columns];

for (int i = 0; i < columns; i++)
{
System.out.println("Column: " + i);
for (int j = 0; j < tableStore.getCount(); j++)
{
System.out.println("Row: " + j);
final Widget cellWidget = be.getGrid().getView().getWidget(j, i);

if (cellWidget != null)
{
if (cellWidget instanceof Html)
{
final String myHtml = ((Html) cellWidget).getHtml();
final int width = TextMetrics.get().getWidth(myHtml);
if (width > maxWidth[i])
{
maxWidth[i] = width;
}
}
}
else
{
System.out.println("Widget null!");
}
}
}

for (int i = 0; i < maxWidth.length; i++)
{
System.out.println(i + "=" + maxWidth[i]);
}
}
});


But all I get is a null widget.

What I'm doing wrong?

Thanks.

the getWidget you only get values if you use the widgetrenderer. otherwise it is null

you look more at the getCell function of GridView

I think you try to calculate the max width of a column and adjust the column size. i remember i answered to this question some days before. i will look for this thread.

PS: there is a small bug with the forum today. you can not answer then switch your javascript off

Ohh thanks!

I changed my inner for to:



final Element cell = be.getGrid().getView().getCell(j, i);

if (cell != null)
{
final int width = TextMetrics.get().getWidth(cell.getInnerHTML());
if (width > maxWidth[i])
{
maxWidth[i] = width;
}
}

pls look also here :-)
there is also info how to calculate it.

grid column width - works just for the header
