The GridRow container defines a row in a Grid container, and contains GridCell containers.

GridRow containers have the following default sizing characteristics:

CharacteristicDescription
Height of each row and each cellThe default or explicit height of the tallest item in the row. If a GridItem container does not have an explicit size, its default height is the default or explicit height of the child in the cell.
Width of each column and each cellThe default or explicit width of the widest item in the column. If a GridItem container does not have an explicit width, its default width is the default or explicit width of the child in the cell.
Gap between rows and columnsDetermined by the horizontalGap and verticalGap properties of the Grid class. The default value for both gaps is 6 pixels.
Default padding0 pixels for the top, bottom, left, and right values, for all three container classes.

MXML SyntaxexpandedHide MXML Syntax

The <mx:GridRow> must be a child of the <mx:Grid> tag, and has one or more child <mx:GridItem> tags that define the grid cells.

The <mx:GridRow> container inherits the tag attributes of its superclass, and adds the following tag attributes:

  <mx:Grid>
    <mx:GridRow
    Styles
      horizontalAlign="left|center|right"
      verticalAlign="top|middle|bottom"
    >
      <mx:GridItem

      </mx:GridItem>
      ...
    </mx:GridRow>
    ...
