Constant Detail

RENDERER_ADD

Constant
public static const RENDERER_ADD:String = "rendererAdd"

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 4
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

The RendererExistenceEvent.RENDERER_ADD constant defines the value of the type property of the event object for an rendererAdd event.

The properties of the event object have the following values:

PropertyValue
bubblesfalse
cancelablefalse
currentTargetThe Object that defines the event listener that handles the event. For example, if you use myButton.addEventListener() to register an event listener, myButton is the value of the currentTarget.
dataThe data item that the renderer is visualizing.
indexThe data provider index for the renderer that was added.
rendererContains a reference to the renderer that was added
targetThe Object that dispatched the event; it is not always the Object listening for the event. Use the currentTarget property to always access the Object listening for the event.

RENDERER_REMOVE

Constant 
public static const RENDERER_REMOVE:String = "rendererRemove"

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Flex 4
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5

The RendererExistenceEvent.RENDERER_REMOVE constant defines the value of the type property of the event object for an rendererRemove event.

The properties of the event object have the following values:

PropertyValue
bubblesfalse
cancelablefalse
currentTargetThe Object that defines the event listener that handles the event. For example, if you use myButton.addEventListener() to register an event listener, myButton is the value of the currentTarget.
dataThe data item that the renderer was visualizing.
indexThe data provider index for the renderer that is being removed.
rendererContains a reference to the renderer that is about to be removed.
targetThe Object that dispatched the event; it is not always the Object listening for the event. Use the currentTarget property to always access the Object listening for the event.
