[Solved] Inserting a new record in grid

[Howard]

Hi Telerik Team,

I've got a grid with in-line editing and an add new button in the grid header as in http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-mvc/grid/editingajax.
When i click on add new button, it creates a new line in the grid. Is there a way that I can default some values in the textboxes like current datetime or the person's name who is logged in?

Thank you

Hello Niroj,

The setting you are looking for, can be found in the editing configuration. There is a method called DefaultDataItem - it accepts the an instance of your object containing the desired default values.
e.g.

.Editable(editing => editing.Mode(GridEditMode.InLine)
                    .DefaultDataItem(new YourModel{ Id=66,Name='Niroj'))
