hide/show or enable/disable grid column in Edit mode

[Ivan Siew]

Is there a way to programmatically hide/show or disable/enable a specific grid column in edit mode?

Basically, I have a column that is a checkbox. Once the user has completed a certain task, I want to disable or hide the checkbox column in edit mode so that the value (True/False) is still displayed but going into edit mode, the checkbox will not be displayed/rendered.

Thanks.

Hi Ivan,

Thanks for your interest in Syncfusion Products.

It is possible to hide/show a particular column in Edit Mode in GridGroupingControl. The following code snippet is used to acheive this behaviour.

 void GridGroupingControl1_CurrentRecordContextChange(object sender, CurrentRecordContextChangeEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Action == CurrentRecordAction.BeginEditCalled)
        {
            this.GridGroupingControl1.TableDescriptor.VisibleColumns.Remove("EmployeeID");
        }
        if (e.Action == CurrentRecordAction.EndEditComplete)
        {
            this.GridGroupingControl1.TableDescriptor.VisibleColumns.Add("EmployeeID");
        }
    }

Please find the simple sample in the following link:

Please let me know if any concerns.
