Hi,

how to put a ColumnGroupHeaderLayer into a grid?

CompositeLayer gridLayer = new CompositeLayer(1, 3);
gridLayer.setChildLayer(GridRegion.COLUMN_GROUP_HEADER, columnGroupHeaderLayer, 0, 0);
gridLayer.setChildLayer(GridRegion.COLUMN_HEADER, columnHeaderLayer, 0, 1);
gridLayer.setChildLayer(GridRegion.BODY, bodyLayer, 0, 2);

CompositeLayer gridLayer = new CompositeLayer(1, 2);
gridLayer.setChildLayer(GridRegion.COLUMN_GROUP_HEADER, columnGroupHeaderLayer, 0, 0);
gridLayer.setChildLayer(GridRegion.BODY, bodyLayer, 0, 1);

???????

Both ways it looks broken somehow. The example comes with a full grid layer but I do not want the row header.

Any help is appreciated.

What about

CompositeLayer gridLayer = new CompositeLayer(1, 2);
gridLayer.setChildLayer(GridRegion.COLUMN_HEADER, columnGroupHeaderLayer, 0, 0);
gridLayer.setChildLayer(GridRegion.BODY, bodyLayer, 0, 1);

Not sure, haven't tried that before.

That one worked.

BTW: What is the preferrable way to work with column groups, via the ColumnGroupModel or the ColumnGroupHeaderLayer? I noticed that there are some issues/uncertainties with collapsing, setting groups collapseable and resizing collapsed columns.

Do you have any hints on column grouping?

Well the column grouping is something that needs to be reworked completely. There are a lot of inconsistencies regarding API and usage.

It should be working on the ColumnGroupHeaderLayer and hide the ColumnGroupModel from the rest of the world. And then we should use commands for all the actions regarding grouping. I'm not sure, but AFAIK this is not consistent for all actions.
