If I have a treelist or grid with "popup" editing and an autosync datasource, how can I have the popup editor appear immediately for the new record?
It seems that with autosync, the create action is called immediately and no popup editor appears.
Ideally I would like the popup before going to the create action (same as without autosync).
It would be acceptable for the popup to appear after calling the create action on the server, so that it is editing a record filled with defaults.

Additional (probably related) problem with autosync + popup editor.
If I bring up the popup editor, then edit any field and tab or click to another field, it does the autosync (calls the update action) but then it closes the edit window.
How can I prevent this?
Hello Scott,
The popup editor is not designed to work with AutoSync functionality of the DataSource. AutoSync feature is more appropriate when using incell edit mode instead. You should avoid using it with the popup edit mode as every change to the model will cause rebinding of the Grid and closing the popup as you have already noticed.
