Hello,

In batch editing with locked column no focus on first cell.

In batch editing when i am add row, first cell get focus. If add first locked column. first cell didn't get focus.

Exemple:      https://dojo.telerik.com/ucEraQOW

Hi Konstantin,

Thank you for the provided Dojo sample.

Generally, when the navigatable property of the grid is enabled, the focus is intentionally removed. What actually happens is that the cell is opened for editing rather than focused. And when a locked column is present, the grid would search for an editable cell in the locked content only. In order to check in the non-locked content as well override the following function:

kendo.ui.Grid.fn._editModel = function(model) {
  var that = this;
  var createAt = that.options.editable.createAt || "";
  var mode = that._editMode();

  if (model) {
    var id = model.uid,
        table = that.lockedContent ? that.lockedTable : that.table,
        row = table.find("tr[" + kendo.attr("uid") + "=" + id + "]"),
        cell = row.children("td:not(.k-group-cell,.k-hierarchy-cell)").eq(that._firstEditableColumnIndex(row)),
        cellCount = row.find("td").length;

    if(!cell.length){
      table = that.table
      row = table.find("tr[" + kendo.attr("uid") + "=" + id + "]")
      cell = row.children("td:not(.k-group-cell,.k-hierarchy-cell)").eq(that._firstEditableColumnIndex(row) - cellCount)
    }
    if (mode === "inline" && row.length) {
      that.editRow(row);
    } else if (mode === "popup") {
      that.editRow(model);
    } else if (cell.length) {
      that.editCell(cell);
    }

    if (createAt.toLowerCase() == "bottom" && that.lockedContent) {
      //scroll the containers to the bottom
      that.lockedContent[0].scrollTop = that.content[0].scrollTop = that.table[0].offsetHeight;
    }
  }
}

And the corresponding Dojo sample:

Let me know in case any questions arise.

Hello,

Maybe you change it in release? I don't want add this in self code. I tested it. It look good.

Hi Konstantin,

I am glad to hear that the provided workaround looks good for you. 

Unfortunately, adding features to the existent logic would have to undergo extensive testing and approval from the development team. Therefore, I have logged an issue in our Feedback portal on your behalf:

If you would like to follow its progress in the GitHub issue, here is a link:
