Rendering an ExtJs button in a GridPanel column

[r_honey]

I am trying to get an ExtJs button inside a GridPanel column. I am using a Renderer to do this.

I could not succeed in doing so cleanly, because I need to return Html from the rendering function. I created an Ext Button, but could not get my hands on its Html without rendering it inside a Container. So, what I did was to return a code from the rendering function, and set a timeout to another function which created & rendered the button in this div.

So, it poses a basic question as to how to get an Ext element's Html without actually getting it rendered (applyToMarkup, render etc. all need a valid DOM element to be passed, to which the Ext element is actually rendered)??

Any help would be greatly appreciated??

Hi,

It is little bit tricky but possible.


0.8 version has CommandColumn.*
CommandColumn is column with embedded toolbar.


So, after release (which will be soon) you can investigate how CommandColumn is implemented and make own plugin for adding ExtJS button

Hi vladimir, thanx for replying. I would wait for the 0.8 release.
