update values on edit mode

[Alon Agmon]

Hi,

I have the following scenario ...

i have a custom column comprised of a custom control: a button & a text field

i need to supply a Java script visible function that will enter a value on the current cell that is in edit mode..

how can i achieve that ?

basically i just need to check if there a certain field in edit mode and than change the field value ... 

kindest regards 

Alon.

Hello Alon Agmon,

If I understood correctly, you want that when a cell enters edit mode - to show a custom text in the input.
You can achieve this without javascript - simply inherit the GridViewDataColumn class and override the CreateCellEditElement:

public class MyColumn : GridViewDataColumn
{
    public override FrameworkElement CreateCellEditElement(GridViewCell cell, object dataItem)
    {
        return new TextBox() { Text = "Enter the new value here" };
    }
}

<telerik:RadGridView.Columns>
    <local:MyColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding Text}" ></local:MyColumn>
</telerik:RadGridView.Columns>

Let me know if I misunderstood something.

Sincerely yours,
