  There is no collectionView.currentItem when I click a “child” row of a Hierachy FlexGrid.

  I need to get the underlying data from a child row, then file it’s parent row so I can edit the parent row.

  I have not problem doing this on a regular “parent” row.

  Could use some help here.

  Thanks!

  Hello,

  The collection view’s current item is null since the collectionView property only has the reference to the topmost parent of the source. In order to get the parent collection, you would need to manually iterate over the grid. Please refer to the sample provided:
