Grid: how to use a table-like layout for 1 record inside Detail Grid?

[Peter]

Hi there,

I have a Master-Detail Grid setup. Inside the Detail template I use a Tabstrip with 5 items.

Inside each of the Tabstrip items I want to show some detail information about the selected (expanded) Master row. Here's my problem: the detail record contains about 30 columns, 27 of them must be readonly while the rest must be editable (hence the choice for yet another Grid). The default grid layout is horizontal, so I get one very wide horizontal row. Because of my screen real estate I want to show all these details in a table-like manner like 3 columns, 9 rows, last row for all the editable items.

Can you give me some advice and sample code how to handle this?

Best,

Peter

I'm sorry, I have to look at this further.

Hi Peter,

By default the Grid displays the data as it is passed from the remote service. It does not alter its structure. In order to implement the behavior you describe the data should be transposed in order for the columns to be shown as rows. The blog post below describes how this functionality can be implemented.

Give the approach a try and let me know how it works for you.
