FilteringSelect in gridx

[adros]

I would like to use FilteringSelect as editor in my grid (with alwaysEditing feature turned off). I have found the sample (/gridx/tests/test_grid_edit.js), but in the sample, the filtering select is bound to grid which has 'idAttribute' same as 'searchAttribute'.

What is the strategy for more realistic situations, where id of an item is e.g. number? Because in such a situation 'id' is displayed in the cell after editor is hidden.

In EnhancedGrid, we have solved this using special formatter which fetched the item from the store according to id and then returned label of the item. This was possible because EnhancedGrid supports Deferred as output from formatter, but I didn't find this possibility in gridx.

Any suggestions?

Hi, you can use fromEditor/toEditor functions if the displayed data is different from the data in your FilteringSelect.

e.g.:

{ field: "Album", name:"FilteringSelect", width: '100px', editable: true,

editor: FilteringSelect,

editorArgs: {

props: 'store: fsStore, searchAttr: "id"',

fromEditor: function(value, cell){

return ...//the value is from the FilteringSelect (after editing), do anything you want here, and what you return will be displayed in cell.

},

toEditor: function(data){

return ...//data is the grid data, do anything you want here, and what you return will be set to the FilteringSelect by set('value', ...) method.

}

}

},

I tried using filtering select in gridx grid. What I observed is, if a cell has a filtering select widget and if we double click it to change its value , the value becomes blank. Which is not its default behavior. The value should remain there as it is ...
Can you explain how do I do it?
Thank you
