Custom Editor textfield or jqxNumberInput depending on row

[Klaus HParticipant]

Hello,

I have a scenario and wanted to know if this is possible.

I have a grid field that is declared as string. The content of this field can depending on other attributes either be a string with a defined maxlength or a number with a defined format. In my frist try I have edited this field in a popup window and that worked. Is it possible to achieve this inside the grid?

I have tried this approach, which works for the string with the maxlength, but I cannot get the editor to behave as a jqxNumberInput like in other columns (which are numbers, so I assume that’s the problem):

initeditor: function (row, column, editor) 
{
	var data = $('#jqxgrid').jqxGrid('getrowdata', row);
	if(data.ftid == 1) //Alpha
	{
		editor.attr('maxlength', data.fieldlength);
	}
	else if(data.ftid == 2) //Numeric
	{
		var digits = data.fieldprec - data.fieldscal;
		var decimalDigits = data.fieldscal;
		editor.jqxNumberInput({ digits: digits, decimalDigits: decimalDigits, spinButtons: false});
	}
}

Is there any way to achieve this or is this by design because of the definition number or string?

PS: I also tried to put the editor.jqxNumberInput in createeditor, but the result stayed the same, it is just a normal textbox.
