Hi Mypost,

Thank you for posting in the community.

It is not possible to display an editor in each cell of a column when using an editor provider as the provider is in fact a single control which is displayed in the cell only when it is in edit mode. However, you can configure a row cell to enter edit mode by handling the RowSelectionChanged clientside event. For instance:


 function WebDataGrid1_Selection_RowSelectionChanged(sender, eventArgs)
{
 ///<summary>
 ///
 ///</summary>
 ///<param name="sender" type="Infragistics.Web.UI.WebDataGrid"></param>
 ///<param name="eventArgs" type="Infragistics.Web.UI.RowSelectionChangedEventArgs"></param>
    var cellWithProvider = eventArgs.getSelectedRows().getItem(0).get_cell(0);
    sender.get_behaviors().get_editingCore().get_behaviors().get_cellEditing().enterEditMode(cellWithProvider);
}// -->

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Hi Mypost,

Thank you for your reply.

Under IE7/8/9 Firefox and Chrome the desired cell seems to be staying in edit mode when using version 11.2.20112.1019. Please let me know what version of .NetAdvantage you are using so that I may research whether some specifics apply in your case. Also note that using some behavior combinations may prevent the cell from staying in edit mode in this scenario, therefore it would be helpful to see your grid markup.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any additional questions.

Hi Mypost,

Thank you for the sample code.

The desired cell is not remaining in edit mode upon a change in row selection as the MouseClick edit mode action of the updating behavior is set to single, i.e cells enter edit mode on a single mouse click. I would suggest that you consider setting this property to Double which should resolve the matter.

Alternatively, you may try handling the ExitingEditMode clientside event of the updating behavior and cancelling the event if the row has just been changed (when the cell in question should remain in edit mode). For instance:

Code Snippet

globalVars = {

   isSelectionChanged : false

}

function webTableGrid_CellEditing_ExitingEditMode(sender, eventArgs) {

    if (globalVars.isSelectionChanged) {

        eventArgs.set_cancel(true);

        globalVars.isSelectionChanged = false;

    }

}

function webTableGrid_Selection_RowSelectionChanged(sender, eventArgs)

{

    var cellWithProvider = eventArgs.getSelectedRows().getItem(0).get_cell(0);

    sender.get_behaviors().get_editingCore().get_behaviors().get_cellEditing().enterEditMode(cellWithProvider);

    globalVars.isSelectionChanged = true;

}

Hope this helps.

Thanks for reply.

function webTableGrid_CellEditing_ExitingEditMode(sender, eventArgs) {

    if (globalVars.isSelectionChanged) {

        eventArgs.set_cancel(true);

        globalVars.isSelectionChanged = false;

    }

}

Above code work great. but when i edit cell value and then select another row then new selected row

does not come in editing mode, because after editing cell value, cell value changed event fire. Is there a way to resolve this issue?

Hi Mypost,

Apologies for the delayed response.

After a cell has been edited an AJAX call is made in order to update the grid's datasource. I can suggest enabling BatchUpdating in the editing core in order to not update the grid on each cell change.

Hope this helps.
