VW Grid and dropdown list columns

[steve.vilotti]

I have a column that uses a dropdown when editing. Is it possible to set or change the items displayed in the dropdown list after the grid is loaded?

Steve,

Yes, it's possible to do that. We have already illustrated this in "Priority" column of "GanttControlTableCustomization" sample in our install.

EDIT:
Take a look at this "priorityEditor" in GanttControlTableCustomization sample,

Code: [Select]

RadiantQ.Binder.priorityEditor = function () {

    this.init = function ($elem, role, value, data) {
        var source = ["Low", "Medium", "High"];
        for (var i = 0; i < source.length; i++) {
            $elem.append("<option value=" + (i + 1) + ">" + source[i] + "</option>");
        }
        //To set the value to select.
        $elem.val(value.getter(data));
        //select change event.
        $elem.change(function () {
            //To update the boundobject.
            data.Activity.DataSource.Status.Priority = $(this).val();
        });
    }
}

In this code, items for drop down is set in "var source = ["Low", "Medium", "High"];" code on "init" function of priorityEditor. You can customize something like this.


Thanks,
