Cell with edEditBtn, but cannot edit

VCL TMS VCL UI Pack

Hi TMS support,


I have a column in my that show a text value. I want the user to absolutely use the "edEditBtn" to change the value. I don't want the user to be able to change the value with the keyboard.

I try to set column property ReadOnly = True, but it,s not working.

Is there a way to do this ?

I assume you refer to TAdvColumnGrid here?


If so, if you want  the inplace editor part of the EditButton cell editor readonly you should implement OnGetEditorProp and set:

procedure TForm3.AdvColumnGrid1GetEditorProp(Sender: TObject; ACol,
  ARow: Integer; AEditLink: TEditLink);
begin
  if acol = COLUMNINDEXWITHEDITBTN then
  begin
    AdvColumnGrid1.BtnEdit.EditorEnabled := false;
  end;
end;

Thank you so much!!!


Sorry it was my fault, I was trying to apply your code to grid column instead of the grid.
It works
