I am using handsontable and my code is written in typescript/aurelia. I cannot center align the checkbox column. I followed this link and set the className on my checkbox column to "htCenter htMiddle". On text columns this thing works but not on the checkbox column. Whereas when I use my dev tools and set the class on the <td> to "htCenter htMiddle", it works. Is there any other way to set the alignment for this checkbox column?
Here is the code for adding the className:
this.options.columns = [
{ data: "modalValue", renderer: linkButtonRenderer, readOnly: true },
{ data: "uri", readOnly: true },
{ data: "isPublic", className: "htCenter htMiddle", type: "checkbox" }
];
You have to set
{ data: 'Is_anything', type: 'checkbox', className: "htCenter htMiddle" },
like this. You will get checkbox in center.
I've made my own fix for this issue for Handsontable 0.19.0
[handsontable.full.js: line 17197]
function checkboxRenderer(instance, TD, row, col, prop, value, cellProperties)
adding this to allow using custom renderers (don't know why they missed this)
getRenderer('base').apply(this, arguments);
If you just want to hardcode the align, put this as a first line in that function:
TD.style.textAlign = "center";
The inability to set checkbox (and numeric) alignment was a bug in previous versions of Handsontable. This has been fixed as of Handsontable version 0.25.1 --- see https://github.com/handsontable/handsontable/issues/2925 and https://github.com/handsontable/handsontable/issues/3532.
The OP's code should now work.

Is it possible to use a dropdown column in a HandsOnTable without the editable textbox?
I know you can set the type to dropdown and it will validate/highlight red when you enter an invalid value, but is there a way to completely disable text entry for dropdown columns? It seems just using the readOnly property on the column blocks the dropdown altogether.
As you said, the readOnly option will disable you dropdown. So I believe the closest solution you can use is the allowIndvalid = false (true by default) :
allowInvalid: true (optional) - allows manual input of value that does not exist in the source. In this case, the field background highlight becomes red and the selection advances to the next cell
allowInvalid: false - does not allow manual input of value that does not exist in the source. In this case, the ENTER key is ignored and the editor field remains opened.

I have the same issue and was able to resolve it with such steps. Maybe this could help:
1 when creating columns add a special className to the necessary column type:
{
data: 'priceUnitsName',
type: 'dropdown',
invalidCellClassName: 'colored',
source: Object.keys(unitNames),
width: 100,
className: 'disable-edit',
}
2 Subscribe to events to handle cancel editing:
private targetCell: HTMLTableCellElement;
public settings: GridSettings = {
// your settings
afterOnCellMouseDown: (event: MouseEvent, coords: CellCoords, TD: HTMLTableCellElement) => {
this.targetCell = TD;
},
afterBeginEditing: (row: number, column: number) => {
if (this.targetCell.classList.contains('disable-edit')) { // this handle only necessary columns with special class
setTimeout(() => {
const inputCollection: HTMLCollection = document.getElementsByClassName('handsontableInput');
Array.from(inputCollection).forEach((input: HTMLTextAreaElement) => {
input.blur(); // this calls blur on element manually
});
});
}
},
Maybe this is not the best decision, but by default, handsontable can't make dropdown elements readonly with leaving open-close dropdown functional and I can't find any workable suggestion with this.
Checked on 'dropdown' and 'date' types, and it works.
I am using form editing. I would like to disable certain fields in my add and edit forms based on the selection from a drop down box. What event is best to use to trigger this? I have attempted using dataEvents:
{ name:'type_cd',
edittype:'select',
editoptions:{
dataUrl:'functions.php',
dataEvents:[{
type:'change',
fn: function(e){
$(this).setColProp('cntrct_id',{
editoptions:{editable:false}
});
}
}]
}
},
This has no visible effect on my form fields, but I know that it's being reached because I can get an alert message from it if I put one in.
EDIT
If I submit the form, the next time I open it, the column that was set to editable:false will not appear. This is a step in the right direction, BUT I want it to immediately be uneditable. Really, I would like it to be visible, but disabled (i.e. disabled:true)
First of all dataEvents allows you to register callbacks on elements of edit elements. Inside of callbacks this will be initialized to the DOM element which will be bound. So $(this) inside of change handler it will be wrapper on <select> element and not on the grid. The usage of $(this).setColProp will be incorrect.
To disable some input field in Add/Edit form you can use the fact that all input elements get the same id like the value of name property on the corresponding column in colModel. So if you need to disable input of cntrct_id you can set disabled property to true on the element with id="cntrct_id"
{
name: 'type_cd',
edittype: 'select',
editoptions: {
dataUrl: 'functions.php',
dataEvents: [{
type: 'change',
fn: function (e) {
// disable input/select field for column 'cntrct_id'
// in the edit form
$("#cntrct_id").prop("disabled", true);
}
}]
}
}
It's important to understand that editoptions will be used for any existing editing modes (form editing, inline editing and cell editing). If you want to write the code of dataEvents which supports all editing modes you have to detect editing mode and use a little other ids of editing fields. The code (not tested) can be about as below
{
name: 'type_cd',
edittype: 'select',
editoptions: {
dataUrl: 'functions.php',
dataEvents: [{
type: 'change',
fn: function (e) {
var $this = $(e.target), $td, rowid;
// disable input/select field for column 'cntrct_id'
if ($this.hasClass("FormElement")) {
// form editing
$("#cntrct_id").prop("disabled", true);
} else {
$td = $this.closest("td");
if ($td.hasClass("edit-cell") {
// cell editing
// we don't need to disable $("#cntrct_id")
// because ONLY ONE CELL are edited in cell editing mode
} else {
// inline editing
rowid = $td.closest("tr.jqgrow").attr("id");
if (rowid) {
$("#" + $.jgrid.jqID(rowid) + "_cntrct_id")
.prop("disabled", true);
}
}
}
}
}]
}
}
The last remark. If you still use old version of jQuery (before jQuery 1.6) which don't support prop method you have to use attr instead.
#Oleg: This is working(could get the alert messages) but its not disabling the field.
Should the form field require any special values?
I am using jqgrid to show dynamic data in it, my sql stored procedure returns some data as "T & E". I am displaying this data in group header, i can only see "T" in the group header the rest of the data is trimmed down in IE 7/8. The same thing when i run it in Firefox it show correctly as "T & E". Please tell me the solution for this problem, any help would be appreciated.
I have tried the autoencode property setting it to true, but it did not work,
I have kept the meta tag character encoding utf-8 in the aspx file.
I had similar issue while editing . This link helped me to attain what i wanted with some tweaks.
My system config.
Win 7 with IE8
While editing, the text after the '&' was lost. Eg: If we had text like 'a&a' only 'a' used to show up in the grid and get saved eventually.
The custom formatter how ever did the trick for me.
//In col Model
//Assuming description is one of your column in the jqGrid
//Note the formatter , this is the custom formatter which does the magic for us in this case.
{ name: 'Description', index: 'Description', align: "center", sorttype: 'text', sortable: true, resizable: false, editable: editGrids, formatter: formatTextDisplay,unformat:unformatTextDisplay}
//Formatter code
var formatTextDisplay = function (cellval, opts, action) {
if (cellval) {
return $.jgrid.htmlEncode(cellval);
};
return "";
}
//Un formatter code, in case you want to read through the text in its original state from the grid for processing in the javascript file.
var unformatTextDisplay = function (cellval, opts, action) {
if (cellval) {
return $.jgrid.htmlDecode(cellval);
};
return "";
}
I have a jqGrid (using inline editing) with an autocomplete column. When the user selects a value from the autocomplete column, an event handler sets a value on another column, and also sets the value on the autocomplete column to something other than the label returned from the autocomplete source. The two column definitions (complete jsFiddle example here):
{
name: 'cartoonId',
index: 'cartoonId',
width: 90,
editable: false},
{
name: 'cartoon',
index: 'cartoon',
width: 200,
editable: true,
edittype: 'text',
editoptions: {
dataInit: function(elem) {
$(elem).autocomplete({
source: autocompleteSource,
select: function(event, ui){
var rowId = $("#inlineGrid").jqGrid('getGridParam', 'selrow');
if(ui.item){
$("#inlineGrid").jqGrid('setCell', rowId, 'cartoonId', ui.item.CartoonId);
$("#inlineGrid").jqGrid('setCell', rowId, 'cartoon', ui.item.Name);
}
return false;
}
});
}
}},
The problem is that whenever the user selects a value from the autocomplete, either by clicking it or using arrows and pressing the tab key, that cell is no longer editable, and the grid appears to lose focus entirely. If I comment out the line that sets the cartoon cell value, it behaves normally. Is there any way I can get around this behavior? I need the entire row to remain in edit mode, including the cartoon column, until the user completes the edit.
jqGrid 4.4.1
jQuery 1.7.2
jQuery UI 1.8.18
You should rename Name property of the items from the autocompleteSource to value because jQuery UI Autocomplete examines the label and value per default (see the documentation).
You can't use setCell of the 'cartoon' column which is currently in the editing mode. You should remove return false; from select callback too. So the code could looks about the following
dataInit: function (elem) {
$(elem).autocomplete({
source: autocompleteSource,
select: function (event, ui) {
var rowId = $("#inlineGrid").jqGrid('getGridParam', 'selrow');
if (ui.item) {
$("#inlineGrid").jqGrid('setCell', rowId, 'cartoonId',
ui.item.CartoonId);
}
}
});
}

In a column a of a grid panel I use a combobox as editor and a renderer to display values :
editor: {
xtype: 'combobox',
alias: 'bienTypeCombobox',
store: 'BienTypesStore',
valueField: 'id_bien_type',
displayField: 'nom',
autoHeight: true,
editable: false,
autoSelect: true,
allowBlank: false
},
renderer: function (value, metaData, record, rowIndex, colIndex, store, view) {
var display = '';
Ext.data.StoreManager.get("BienTypesStore").each(
function (rec) {
if (rec.get('id_bien_type') === value) {
display = rec.get('nom');
return false;
}
});
return display;
}
So, when the cells are edited the combo box is displayed and when the cells are not edited the displayField of this combo box is displayed.
My problem is that for now,, when I click on the header of this column, the rows are sorted by the valueField of the combo box.
I would like to make the user able to sort this column by the displayedField of the combo box.
Please help, thanks
I don't think there is easy solution for this. The only one way I can think of is the following:
Create a virtual field in your model (with display field basically). Create convert function for this virtual field, so when it's set real value field is get updated.
Use this virtual field in the grid without additional rendered
Use editor for this field with both valueField and displayField pointing to this field.
