OrgChart: Custom fields / Template with edit button

[Oliver]

 

Hello,

two questions regarding the OrgChart ...

is it possible to use additional custom fields in the OrgChart or is that limited to Id, ParentId, Name, Title, Avatar, Expanded?

If a template is used, how to get the edit, create, delete menu displayed? is it possible to use an EditorTemplate?

 

Thank you for your help.

Best regard, Oliver

Hi Oliver,

Any additional fields to the OrgChart can be declared via the Field option of the data source:

m.Field(f=>f.FieldName);

Regarding the editing of the widget, the corresponding events are attached dynamically. Therefore, all that is needed is to add the HTML for the context menu to your card template and it should work out automatically.

As per the editing form, currently, the form can be customized item-wise, however, setting an explicit edit template is not exposed. You could modify the options of the form as follows:

    .Editable(e=>e.Form(f=>f.Items(i=>i.Add())))

 

Kind regards,
