Client-side ItemType property

[Ali]

Hi,
How can I access ItemType property at client-side?

Old Version
window[grid.id].MasterTableView.Rows[index].ItemType working fine

Prometheus
$find(grid.id).get_masterTableView().get_dataItems()[index].ItemType not working

Hello Ali,

In RadGrid "Prometheus" all grid items are from the same type - data item.

So, if the ItemType property has been removed from the Client API, what's the best method to determine if a row is in Edit mode or not, etc?

Hello nick,

Can you please elaborate more on the scenario you are trying to accomplish? Based on that we will be able to suggest the best approach in your case.

We have an editable grid on the page, and the user can run actions on the lines being edited.  Before, we would loop through the rows in the grid, and check the ItemType.  If it was being edited we'd take action on the row, otherwise continue looping through the rows to the end...

Hello nick,

In such scenario I suggest you to use a client object such as array in which to hold the edited items indexes. This array can be populated on RadGrid PreRender server-side event for example. Then when needed you can traverse grid's items and check if current item is edited. I have attached a very simple implementation of such approach.

Sincerely yours,
