ASP.NET Grid View

Multiple Edit Mode Layouts

 

When in edit mode, the ASPxGridView offers you total freedom in how individual editors are arranged. The following list highlights all available editor layout options, from the simplest to the most sophisticated:

In-Line Editing

When a row is switched to edit mode, its cells display appropriate editors.

Edit Form

When a row is switched to edit mode, an edit form appears under or instead of the edited row. This form uses a table to arrange label-editor pairs. You can specify the number of columns in this table. An Individual editor-label pair offers customizable column and row span values. This provides you with a flexible data editor arrangement mechanism.

By default, the grid's Edit Form automatically arranges all required editors.

Popup Edit Form

This mode combines the benefits of in-line editing and Edit Forms. On the one hand, the grid doesn't change its size when edit mode is enabled. On the other hand, you have complete control over editor arrangement and can provide elegant display for images or lengthy text fields.

Edit forms can be displayed within modal popup windows

Edit Form Template

To build advanced entry form layouts or to use web page space more efficiently, you can use templates to manually construct edit forms.

Using ASP.NET Template Technology, you can place any controls into the Edit Form.
