Documentation for Grid Column EditType and documentation in general

[Ronald Dirkx]

First of all, I am happy working with your components and with your support but I need to say that your documentation is lacking at the moment.

Especially for ASP.Net Core - EJ2 there is a lot of incomplete documentation and sample code and in several cases there are references to wrong or non-existing pages.

I simply want to know the possible enums for the EditType of the columnsbuilder. In the API this is what I find: https://help.syncfusion.com/cr/aspnetcore-js2/Syncfusion.EJ2.Grids.GridColumnBuilder-1.html#Syncfusion_EJ2_Grids_GridColumnBuilder_1_EditType_System_String_ there is no list of possible values and hovering over edittype shows an empty popup.

I then try to find some answers on the forum but stumble on other things: in this thread https://www.syncfusion.com/forums/128691/edittype-property-values you refer to the JavaScript API but are giving another value in your sample ("booleanedit") than what is mentioned in the documentation ("boolean").

However, based on that I did get some things working ("datepickeredit" for example) but then it seems that "datetimepickeredit" is not working or not available for ASP¨.Net Core EJ2. All in all very confusing and time consuming.

So, question 1: can you give me the correct and complete list of values (with correct casing) for EditType (please don't refer to documentation that is incomplete)

Question 2: can you give more information on the column.format expression (possibilities, impact on/off internationalization)?

Question 3: an open, long-term question: do you plan an initiative to get the documentation updated, more complete with correct code samples? (I am aware that this is a big job …)

thanks
