Grid Editable – jqxDropDownList

[a.klingerMember]

Hello,

I have a little problem with cell-edititing in grids. I have a grid with an colum for editing with jqxDropDownList. I create this dropdownlist with the initeditor and set source like {cid: “12”,name:”foobar”} and I set valueMember to “cid” and displayMember to “name” for the dropdownlist-editor. This works great. But If I read out the data of a row with .jqxGrid(‘getrowdata’,rowIndex) I get only the displayMember of the dropdownlist in the column, and not the valueMember. Can you helpe me?

Thank you in advance,
Adrian

Hi Adrian,

The getrowdata method returns the data record at a specific index. When you edit a cell with the DropDownList, the cell’s value is set to the display value of the DropDownList as in the built-in logic there’s only a display value and the list of items that the editor displays depends only on the Column’s datafield setting. If you need to get a value associated to a given displayed value, you need to keep a map between the value and the display value or use the DataAdapter’s records collection to get the record at a specific index.

Best Regards,
