Different Template for Create and Edit?

[Marcus]

Is there a way to make something editable only on create and not on edit in the editor?

To specify what I mean.

I would like different rules for editable depending on whether you have add new or edit old post. Some key fields cannot be edited once you done the initial create.

Hey Marcus,

Did you get your issue resolved? I am facing a similar issue and it would really be great if you could help me with it.

Hi Marcus,

 

Basically you can use the Edit event to check if the current model is new  to find the required field editor and disable it - please check the example below:

Define Edit event handler:

.Events(e => e.Edit("onEdit"))

onEdit function:

function onEdit(e) {
    //Check if the record is new
    if (!e.model.isNew()) {
        popUp = e.container;

        //Find the field that must be disabled / hided
        fieldForDisable = popUp.find("#OrderDescription").prop('disabled', true);
    }
}

Kind regards,

This is what I did but it would be nice in the future to be able to specify different templates for different modes, You can get alot of script otherwise.

Hi Vladimir,
If you could please show me a code snippet to give the same functionality while using the grid in Inline editing mode, that would really be great.
