Buttons for allowed edit operations are displayed in an edit column. To customize it programmatically, declare a column of the buttons type and specify the available buttons. In this demo, the buttons column is used to hide the "Add" button in each row. See the following help topic for more details on edit column customization: Customize the Edit Column.
This demo also illustrates the following event handlers:
-
onInitNewRow
Populates cells of a new row with default values. In this demo, onInitNewRow sets John Heart as the initial Head for new rows. -
onEditorPreparing
Customizes cell editors. In this demo, this handler disallows users to edit the Head value of John Heart.
Refer to the following help topic to see the full list of the events that edit operations raise: Editing Events.
