Edit a grid by row

[edumrf]

Hi, need some help with a couple things.

Is there any way to edit a grid by row instead of editing by cell?
Which event is used to know when the focus goes from one row to another?

Thanks.

Check out GridPanel docs

I'm sure that the rowclick event would help you accomplish what you are trying to do.

I'm sure that the rowclick event would help you accomplish what you are trying to do.

Unfortunately, no it isn't. The rowclick event only tells the system which row has been clicked, it doesn't provide any sort of editing functionality at all.

For now, I don't think that there is any multi-cell editing for grids in GXT. This feature was only introduces in ExtJS in version 3, so it's something that's very new to the project overall.

If you really need this, a suggestion would be to use the rowclick event to listen for when a row is selected, and use that to pop up a window with a form in it that contains fields for the columns that you want to edit. You should (I haven't looked into it, but it should be around somewhere) be able to find the mouse position or at least the position of that row so you can cover it with the window.

GXT 2.0 will also have the functionality. It will be in SVN very very soon.

Did you speak about the RowEditor component (with update/cancel buttons) available in extjs3.0RC1.1?

I have checked in the javadoc of the GXT2.0 and nothing about this RowEditor !!!

Will this feature be available with the next GXT2.0 Release candidate ?
When will the release be available ?

Regards

Yes. It will be available even before 2.0 reaches RC status. It will be avaible in milestone 2

Is there a way to override the save button? I want to commit the changes after the user clicks on save.

I can't find anything in the API. I tried overriding onComponentEvent to see if the AfterEdit event would fired when clicking the save button and it didn't... So I guessed wrong.

Similarly, I'd like to override the cancel button. In particular, with adding a new row as in the example from http://extjs.com/examples-dev/explorer.html#roweditorgrid, the cancel button really should remove the record from the grid.

I figured out that if you override the stopEditing method, we can tell which button was clicked. But that's not very useful since there's no way to have access to the Model from there.

I needed to add a listener for RowEditorEvent, listening for Events.AfterEdit on the RowEditor.
