Apparently the "Add Row" in the grid doesn't support use of the defined row edit template. In my view, this seems extremely limiting when using the grid as a record editor. For existing rows a well formatted, feature rich row edit template can be defined. For the addrow however, the user only has the basic edit fields in grid's add row.
I'd like to see the grid open the defined row edit template (if one has been defined) when adding a row - this seems intuitive, consistent, and non-confusing for an end user. The existing add row functionality is woefully inadequate.
Anyone have comments or thoughts on this?
I have to say I agree with this. I was completely disappointed so far to find that I am unable to use the same template for both an edit and a new row. Maybe I've missed it somewhere, who knows. I'm not having much luck with anything these days.
II had the same problem. I contacted support who gave me some sample java script code to show how to open the rowtemplate for adding new rows. Maybe they can post it here.
