Combo drop down in igGrid
posted

I have a combo drop down configured in a grid.

My requirement is that when the editor is opened that it display an empty value instead of the first item in the list. Is there a setting or easy way to to do this?

I don't like the solution that I have come up with which is adding a empty element to the data source that is bound to the combo.

    Found my own answer instead of using "mode:combo" change that setting to  "buttonType: dropdown",

     columnKey: "CategoryID",
                                editorType: 'combo',
                                required: true,
                                editorOptions: {
                                    buttonType: "dropdown",

                                     //mode: "dropdown",
                                    dropDownOnFocus : true,
                                     autoSelectFirstMatch : false,
                                     closeDropDownOnBlur: true,
                                    dataSource: northWindCategoriesJSON,
                                    textKey: "Name",
                                    valueKey: "ID"
                                }
                            }
