igGrid

lin mu posted over 12 years ago

Hi,

I have a edtable grid, a column's edit type is "Text", i want to set the editor's textmode to multiline, but i dont' find any property in the ColumnUpdatingTextEditorOptions can be set, so I set the "textMode" to multiline when the "iggridupdatingeditrowstarted" event occured, but it is doesn't work.

The igTextEditor Known Issues have listed this issue:

When the base element is an INPUT element, setting the textMode option to multiline is not supported.

Is there any other workaround ways to make the igEditor to support the multiline? When will the issue be fixed?

Thanks

This will allow a textarea, however the cell is so small. How can we increase the height of row in edit mode to show more than 1.5 lines?

Hello lin mu,

Try with this code:

new ColumnUpdatingSetting() { ColumnKey = "Name", EditorType = ColumnEditorType.Text, EditorOptions = "textMode : \"multiline\"" }

Best regards,

Thanks for your answer, your solution can work , but is not suit for my application. In my code, the updating setting properties are set by the cs code, the updaing setting properties are set by the ColumnUpdatingTextEditorOptions class, but i don't find the "textMode" properties in this class. updating.ColumnSettings.Add(new ColumnUpdatingSetting() { ColumnKey = "Name", ReadOnly = bool. Parse(GetAttribute("IsReadOnly", meta)), EditorType = ColumnEditorType.Text, TextEditorOptions=new ColumnUpdatingTextEditorOptions { MaxLength = maxLength } } Do you have any other ideas?

Hello lin mu,

I have been looking into your questions and I can suggest you set the following options in the columnSettings of the Updating feature:

{

     columnKey: "Name",

     editorType: "text",

     editorOptions: {

        textMode : "multiline"

     }



     }

For additional reference please check the attached sample which I have created for you in order to show this behavior.

If you need any further assistance on this matter please feel free to ask.
