    [CLOSED] Disabling cell editing based on cell value in Ext.Net 2.1

    Hi guys,

    I have read plenty of posts regarding how to disable editing of grid panel cells based on their values. Most of them were for Ext.Net 1.x and could not get it with those methods. e.cancel property is no longer included in beforeEdit handler of editor plugin. cancelEdit also does not work. I also could not locate the stopEditing function for the edit plugin.

    My scenario is:
    Users can input new rows to the grid panel using an Insert button. No blank value is allowed and if editing is canceled by user (esc key etc.) empty record is being removed from store. Editing plugin is only supposed to be used for new item insertion. If a cell already contains a value, editor should not fire with double click. See the simplified code generating the issue. What is the way of disabling cell editing plugin based on the edited cell's value? (I want the editor combobox even do not appear). How is that possible? I am sure it is (; (;

    By the way, this is my first premium support post. I got plenty of useful information from replies to my previous (free) posts and also posts of other friends. I hope I will not bother you with newbie questions (;

    Thank you.

    Hi,

    To prevent cell editing you need to return false in BeforeEdit handler
    - return false; in 'beforeCellEditHandler'
    - change BeforeEdit (add 'return')
    <BeforeEdit Handler="return beforeCellEditHandler(e);"></BeforeEdit>

    Thanks Vladimir, that works.
    Am I missing a documentation explaning this behavior?
