Can I set text on a flexible graphic object?

Question

In any case, I can effectively call equiv. setText on a Flex Graphics object?

In particular, I use my own cell renderer to display data in a datagrid. The renderer uses the Graphics object to set the background color of only part of the cell (say, the left half) based on the underlying data. I would like to have text only for that part of the cell that has a background color (for example, with the center in the left half).

I know all the widths (of both the cell itself and the graphic object), but I do not know how I can set the text (in the center) above the graphic object.

Anyone have any ideas? Tks vm

        uit.width = rect.width;
        var textBitmapData:BitmapData = ImageSnapshot.captureBitmapData(uit);
        var matrix:Matrix = new Matrix();
        var x:int = rect.x;
        var y:int = rect.y;
        matrix.tx = x;
        matrix.ty = y;
        graphics.beginBitmapFill(textBitmapData,matrix,false);
        graphics.drawRect(x,y,uit.measuredWidth,uit.measuredHeight);
        graphics.endFill();
    }
