Here's the ...

We have a Flex DataGrid with 3 columns of which one of them has a custom inline itemrenderer that renders an icon in the cell via an Image component, depending on the data in the row.

Hi! XML is cool in flex, but I have an annoying problem to solve, caused by what I can imagine is a feature.

Any recommendation. Example: this illus...
