  Hello,

  I’d like to raise the onFormatItem event, which requires in the FormatItemEventArgs, a reference to the DOM cell that I want to format. Which API should I use to retrieve such HTMLElement given the row and column?

  Thanks!

  For anyone else that runs across this topic looking to get the HTMLElement of a cell, if you have a reference to the grid you can use:

  flexGrid.cells.getCellElement(row, col)

  This will get the cell from the “cells” panel. There are other GridPanel properties on FlexGrid if you need cells from other areas.

  Hi,

  How can we get cell element which are out of view range?
  
  for eg:- I have 14 columns in grid and 10 are showing for current view for others i need to scroll.
  
  Then i am not able to get cell element of 13 cell on click of button in first cell.
  
  FlexGrid.cells.getCellElement(row,col) is showing null.

  Hi,

  If a cell is not displayed on the DOM (the cell is outside the viewRange), the cell’s element is not created. That is why the getCellElement returns null.
