I want to add specific images to a datagrid row, depending on the data displayed on that row. These images need to be functional buttons with click handlers and everything.
For example, if a row displays status of a certain element, like "Editable" then the image displayed in the cell next to it needs to be a green flag, if it isn't Editable then I red flag should appear.
If you just need images and click handlers, there is an option to embed icons inside a datagrid.
Also, for a datagrid ,clicking on any row triggers the click event,the handler to which will give you datagrid.selectedIndex as the index of the row you clicked, which you can then use to get the data in that specific row and according to the data do a specific action you need.
To render icons in datagrid, you might want to check for labelFunction attribute, which allows you to specify a function , each time data in a datagrid row is filled, which yuo can use to determine the icon you would need the datagrid to render and show to the user.

I have a grid that presents database entities one per row with some crud options (the crud options are icons in their own cells). When the delete button is clicked, the design calls for the entire row to be turned into a confirmation message with buttons to continue or cancel.
Apparently you can give a function for colSpan on each colDef. I tried giving the first colDef a span equal to the number of displayed columns in the case that the row data has a property isDeleting === true, while clicking the delete icon would set the row data's isDeleting property to true.
I was unable to get this to work, and even if I were to get it to work, I'd need to be able to dynamically change the cell so that it contains the confirmation message.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
After a very long day of searching, I found this article on "full-width" rows. You can provide your gridOptions with an isFullWidthCell function, plus fullWidthCellRenderer and fullWidthCellRendererParams properties, and the full width of the row will be populated using the renderer according to the params (as is the case with a cellRenderer in a ColDef)
So, my delete button component can set a piece of data that the isFullWidthCell function can check for, and if it finds it, it will use the cellRenderer provided.
AgGrid seems to have thought of everything.
I am struggling with something which I think should be extremely easy.
I have a Grid in GWT, which I populate its cells with some textual data; at the last column I want to place a Button (or Image) which when clicked, I would like to take some action using the specific/associated data for that row.
I want to use a single ClickHandler for all the buttons. How can I then identify which button (and subsequently which row) has been clicked? Can I associate some sort of tag/identity value to a button (or Image) widget in GWT? With this identity/tag value, then I would be able to identify which row data I am working with.
Any clues?
In the handler use method getCellForEvent(ClickEvent event) of your Grid object. It will return HTMLTable.Cell object which has both row and column index. You pass the event object that has been delivered to the handler method. It works even if you have embed widgets in the cell and you get the click event for that widget.
Actually the method is defined in base HTMLTable, so you can use it also in FlexTable.
I have an ASP .net grid view. It has some template columns like a command button, a text box, and a dropdown control. When I click the command button, a new row needs to be inserted below the current row (from where I hit the command button).
If I have rows 1 and 2 and I hit the command button in row1 a new row needs to be inserted between rows 1 and 2
Now in the new row I should be able to select values from dropdown and enter some value in a text box and finally hit my save button. (Which should work fine as I am expecting)
The grid view is bound to some data source say for instance a datatable for now.
Oneway that I could think about is when Command button is clicked, I can add a new row to the datatable in my server side code and rebind the grid. But I am not sure that, from a UI perspective how I can make sure that the new row goes exactly below the row from where I hit the command button.
Any thoughts or comments?
I think a much easier approach will be if you try to add the row in your data source and then bind to the GridView again. This is easy if you have DataSet or a custom entity collection. Since, you are using DataTable this will also work. Handle the click event and find the row that the user clicked. Go back to the dataTable and add an empty row there. This will make sure that the controls inside the GridView are persisted and you don't have to worry about adding DropDown controls etc.
You have to sort the datasource by an virtual index saved in an invisible column. On first databound(perhaps you take a DataView because of ots sorting capability) it will set to the original rowindex. After first hit of the save button you get the datatable again from database and add the additional row with an index after the "selected" row. Then you bind the GridView again with the sorted DataView.
I think you need another invisible column to detect the "temporary" row. If you dont need to edit the "normal" rows then you can use edititemtemplate for this. Otherwise you can make the dropdown and textbox visible and the other controls invisible in GridView.OnRoawDataBound.
There is a code sample that is used for adding a new row in between rows in a grid view.
I am having some problems with tabbing within my asp.net pages. This project was developed with Visual Studio 2008.
Case 1
I have two html tables. The first table has two rows; the second table has four rows. Within the cells are of each table are asp.net fields, text boxes and radio button lists. I set focus to the first field of table one. I then press the tab key multiple times. The focus moves through the field of table one and then through the fields in the first row of the table two. Then instead of goes to the second row of the table two it return to the table one.
But if I set focus to the last cell on the first row of table two, it tabs through the remaining cells of table two properly. Can you tell me how to get the tabbing to behave properly and go to the cells in there natural order? Note that I am setting the tab index property in the order that I want.
Case 2
On another page I have an html table with a single row followed by a gridview control. The gridview control is writeable and has the following columns: Check Box, Radio Button List, Text Box, Text Box, Text Box and a Check Box List. If I click on one of Check Box, Radio Button List or Check Box List., then press tab, the cursor pops out of the grid and sets focus on the first field of the table outside the grid. But if I set focus on one of the text boxes and tab; then the tab goes through the fields of the grid left to right one row at a time. This later behavior is what I want in both cases. I don’t know why my cursor pops out of the grid when I start with a field other than a text box.
Please help if you can.

funny, you explain in details your case but you didn't explain what it needs to be explained in order to someone can understand you :)
first of all, is table1 located in the first tab and table2 in second tab?
what do you used for tabs: asp.net tab control, jquery ui tabs...?
what do you mean by 'press the tab key multiple times'? same tab? do you have postback on tab click? what is the focus in your case, and so on and on...
cheers
Have you checked the order of the input elements in your HTML? Generally the tab order follows the order of controls.
If that all looks right, then make sure nothing is setting the TabIndex property - as this will also mess up the tab order.
I pretty much resolve this and I wanted to add the answer for anyone who viewed this thread. The problem was the autpostback on certain fields. Once I disabled autopostback, the problems went away.

You need to use Javascript and I referred for your a very good example of navigating through Gridview rows with Up/Down keys.
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/25675/GridView-Rows-Navigation-Using-Arrow-Up-Down-Keys
1) Have a listbox with 3 values out of 5 selected
2) When I click to select another value without holding CTRL button, it will unselect over values
How to make it keep other selected values if new value is selected?
This is going to sound like a snide answer, but I don't mean it that way. I just like to look for the simple solutions rather than the complicated onces.
The easiest way to get a control to have the behavior you want is to use a control that has the behavior that you want, rather than modifying the behavior of an existing control.
That said, if you want a list of items where a user can select a bunch of items off the list, and don't want to have to rely on them holding control, you're using the wrong tool for the job.
Use a CheckBoxList instead of a ListBox. If you want it to be scrollable, then set it in a div of a specific height, and set the style of the div to "overflow: scroll".
If you still want to use a ListBox you should use javascript and for each click event fired, you should check if the clicked element is selected/unselected and act accordingly. It's a little bit tricky but at least it is a solution for your problem.
