    Hi,

    I have a custom cell where I can have 2 states (read only and editable). The problem is that GridCellProps does not contain any information about column edit mode. Example https://stackblitz.com/edit/react-qzapj7?file=app/main.jsx 

    <Column
          field="Discontinued"
          title="Discontinued"
          cell={DropDownCell}
          editable={false} // no access to "editable" from DropDownCell
    />

     

    and something like this 

    <Column
          field="Discontinued"
          title="Discontinued"
          cell={editable? DropDownCellEdit : DropDownCellReadOnly }
    />

    or 

    <Column
          field="Discontinued"
          title="Discontinued"
          cell={(props) => <DropDownCell {...props} editable={editable}/> }
    />

    is not possible in my case.

    Any plans to add this information to GridCellProps ?

    Hello, Matej,

    Currently, this can be done by passing the editable value to the custom cell using this approach:

    https://www.telerik.com/kendo-react-ui/components/grid/cells/#toc-customization

    This information is not passed as we use it internally when we render the cells. If the developer is using a custom cell, we assume that this information can be provided by the developer as extra props.

    Still, I will check with the team if we can pass all props to the custom cell, the remove the need to pass manually pass props.

    Regards,
