possible to make spark datagrid column separator appear behind cell
contents?
Spark DataGrid column separators always appear on top of the cell (text) contents.
Can anyone think of a way to either:
1. Place the column separator behind the cell contents.
2. Eliminate the column separator (e.g. alpha=0) for specific rows.
I want to create the illusion of spanned rows in spark DataGrid using simple techniques (e.g. reliable techniques).
I found I can use a link button in such a way that it spans multiple columns, so the text contents when placed in the first column will extend into the second column if its text is sufficiently large.
Now I just need a way to make sure the column separator doesn't appear over it.
I want something like:
-------------------------------
| col 1 | col 2 | col 3 |
-------------------------------
| blah | blah | blah |
-------------------------------
| my subheading here |
-------------------------------
| blah | blah | blah |
-------------------------------
instead of the current situation:
-------------------------------
| col 1 | col 2 | col 3 |
-------------------------------
| blah | blah | blah |
-------------------------------
| my subh|eading he|re |
-------------------------------
| blah | blah | blah |
-------------------------------
Note: I don't want to use ADG.

Thanks so much! This was the first thing I attempted to do, but I didn't know how to place the separator after the cell contents. Your code snipped below helped a lot, to show me where in the skin I needed to make the change. Works great!

try to use the datagrid's skin class,
something like below (switch the layers)
<!--- @private -->
<s:Grid id="grid" itemRenderer="spark.skins.spark.DefaultGridItemRenderer">
<s:GridLayer name="backgroundLayer"/>
<s:GridLayer name="selectionLayer"/>
<s:GridLayer name="editorIndicatorLayer"/>
*<s:GridLayer name="overlayLayer"/> *
<s:GridLayer name="rendererLayer"/>
</s:Grid>
