combobox

I am using a custom item renderer in a combobox to display a custom drawing instead of the default text label.

This works fine for the dropdown list but the displayed item ( when the list is closed) is still the textual representation of my object.

Is there a way to have the displayed item rendered the same way as the one in the dropdown?

In a Flex DataGrid's first row, the itemRenderer will initialize twice. Tracing the results reveals that the flex framework is possibly creating two instances of the first row's itemRenderer.
