How to bottom-align cells in a DataGroup using TileLayout?

Question

I\'d like to bottom-align cells in a tiled DataGroup, so that rows grow bottom-top instead of top-bottom. I guess what i\'m looking for is something like RowAlign.BOTTOM

Answer 1

Yes i want to answer my own question. What i wanted to do was extend TileLayout and override updateDisplayList(), but due to excessive use of privates in TileList that was not possible so i ended up copying the whole TileList source and changed a few lines in updateDisplayList(), eg:

var yPos:Number = unscaledHeight - visibleStartY - _rowHeight; 

and

yPos -= yMajorDelta;

and

// Move along the minor axis
if (++counter >= counterLimit)
{
    counter = 0;
    if (orientation == TileOrientation.ROWS)
    {
        xPos = 0;
        yPos -= yMinorDelta;
    }
    else
    {
        xPos += xMinorDelta;
        yPos = unscaledHeight - visibleStartY - _rowHeight;
    }
}

a hack, sort of, but works fine for my needs.
