Enter/Exit Edit mode in code behind

[dniezgoda]

Hi Team,

Is there any way to enter/exit edit mode from code behind for specific column cell?
eg. Enter edit mode for Name column right after adding new row to the gantt

Thank you in advance!

Hi dniezgoda,

Provide the unique cell class name to the column that you want to edit programmatically,

Code: [Select]

{
    field: "Activity_M().ActivityName_M()",
    title: "Activity Name",
    width: 150,
    cellClass: "nameCol",
    editor: RadiantQ.Default.Template.ProjectGanttExpandableTextboxEditor(),
    template: RadiantQ.Default.Template.ProjectGanttExpandableTextBlockTemplate()
}
And then get that specific column from the newly added activity view to make the cell into edit mode.

Code: [Select]

$("#addRow").click(function () {
    var newTask = getNewTask();
    ganttControl.AddNewItem(newTask);

    setTimeout(function () {
        var actView = ganttControl.ActivityViews[ganttControl.ActivityViews.length - 1];
        ganttControl.$ganttWrapper.data("GanttRowselectable").selectedItems.clear();
        // Select the row before start editing
        ganttControl.AddSelectedItem(actView);
        var $tr = ganttControl.grid.GetRowFromData(actView)
        var $td = $("td.nameCol", $tr);
        // To edit the cell
        ganttControl.grid.editCell($td);
    }, 100);
});
Thanks
Raja

one more thing, could you pls help me to commit a editing cell (Name column) from code behind?
For example:
When user create a new task and naming it but not hit Enter key to commit change instead he press a shotcut key to run another action.
In this case, the editing text cannot be commited to name column
