How to have cascading ForeignKey columns in a grid's inline edit mode

[Miechko]

     I am trying to make a very simple functionality but i cant seem to figure it out.

 

i want to be able to pick a category and a dependent subcategory, how can i achieve this in an inline grid edit?

Hello Miechko,

A possible solution is to create custom drop down editors for the category and subcategory fields and make them cascade.

The following article explains how to create a custom drop down editor step by step:

• https://docs.telerik.com/aspnet-mvc/helpers/grid/templating/editor-templates

Furthermore, in the link below you will find a sample which demonstrates how to create cascading drop down editors:

• https://github.com/telerik/ui-for-aspnet-mvc-examples/tree/master/grid/grid-editing-cascading-dropdownlist

Please note that both the article and the sample are for MVC. However, the very same configuration is applicable in Asp.Net Core.
