Custom Editing
The Grid enables you to implement custom column editors and to specify validation rules that apply while the user edits the data.
Implementing Custom Editors
To implement a custom editor in the Grid, specify the editor field of the respective column. The value of this field will point to a JavaScript function which will instantiate the column editor for the corresponding column cells. For a runnable example, refer to the demo on editing with custom editors in the Grid.
Setting Validation Rules
To define a validation rule for the edit operation, configure the validation option in the schema of the data source. For a runnable example, refer to the demo on custom validator editing in the Grid.
