Hello All,

Is it possible to edit a few fields inline in the grid and a few fields in the popup editor. The way I am looking at it is, when the record in the grid is in the edit mode, I would like to have links or buttons on few fields and if they need to be edited I would click on the link or button to open the popup edit them and close the popup. Once the popup is closed it should update the corresponding fields in the grid and when the row is saved all the changes should be persisted. Can you please provide a sample as to how this needs to be done.

Thank you
Kavitha

Hello Kavitha,

I am afraid that what you would like to achieve is not supported out of the box. By design the Grid widget can operate in only one of the available editing modes - incell, popup or inline. 

One possible solution for this case is to edit the "special" fields in a custom container (might be a window widget). This approach however requires the developer to create and bind the edit form manually.
External form editing is demonstrated in this code library project.
