igGridUpdating - Tabbing when overwriting editcellstarting event
posted

In the grid I have an event wired up to the editcellstarting event.  Sometimes I cancel this event to prevent the editors from showing.  But when a user is tabbing, it cancels the tab event so the grid doesn't naturally flow to the next record.  How can I get around this?

Legend
X  =  Show Editors
Y  =  Prevent Editors

Row 1:  X | X | X | X | X
Row 2:  X | X | Y | X | X
Row 3:  X | X | Y | Y | X

First row tabs perfectly!
Second row tabs stop after the second column.  User has to manually click on column 4 to start again.
Third row tabs stop after the second column.  User has to manually click on the column 5 to start again.

The tab should naturally shift to the next available column.  After looking at the source, I saw that the code returns with a "Cancelled" response and the invoker does nothing with it except returns.  I don't want to cancel it, I want to skip it.  How can I achieve this?

    Hello Karthik,

    What I can suggest you based on your current scenario is after canceling the editCellStarting event to find the next cell which you want to be editable and to call startEdit API method for this cell. If you have any questions, please let me know.

    Regards,
