Hello,



I have a grid that uses popup editing with a custom template. In this custom edit template I have a grid with child entities. In the edit event handler of the parent grid I set the datasource of the child grid with the appropriate filter for the parent row. I can see that the child entities are loaded ok. I want this child grid to be editable. Every row in the child grid shows edit and destroy commands and the child grid toolbar has a create command. However, when I click on the create, edit or destroy buttons, nothing happens. Has anybody seen this before? Should I add a code sample?



cheers

I managed to get the editing and deleting of the child entities to work. I made a silly mistake there. But the create command in the toolbar of the child grid is still not doing anything. I suspect this is because the child grid has a filter set that means any new records do not show up. I need to be able to set a foreign key as a new child entity is created. I cannot see the grid api has a handler for that.

I suspect I need to create a custom create toolbar command that creates my new child entity setting the foreign key and then manually set the new row into edit mode. I can see how I can do a custom column command, but I cannot see how I can create a custom toolbar command.
