Kendo Editor inside a grid in-cell editor

[Lewis]

Hi,

We're using the Kendo Editor in a custom editor template for fields in a kendo grid in in-cell edit mode.

It mainly works, but one issue is that sometimes using toolbar tools like foreColor seems to cause the editor blur event to fire, which closes the editor.

Is this a bug or is there a suggested work-around for this?

Hi Lewis,

I am afraid this is a side effect of the way some Editor tools work and there is no good workaround that we can suggest, other than using InLine or PopUp editing mode instead.

Ok, thanks.

I worked around this by adding an overlay to my template, behind the editor, and removing the blur event from the editor when the template loads.  I then trigger the save when the overlay is clicked.
