Hi,
I have a TreeGrid with 6 columns. I am populating the Tree Grid using the XML based approach. Now I want to pick a particular column, say column 4 and show that single column in a new window. My original grid remains unaffected.
I would like to know if its possible to gets a single column from the grid. If yes please tell me how can I do it.
Thank you.
There is no such inbuild functionality but you can do the following:
1) By clicking on the column serialize necessary column, then hide this column:
mygrid.attachEvent(“onRowSelect”,function(rowId,cellIndex){
if (cellIndex==2){
mygrid.setSerializationLevel(false,true,true);
mygrid.setSerializableColumns(“false,false,true”);
var str=mygrid.serialize();
mygrid.setColumnHidden(cellIndex,true);
openWindow(str,cellIndex);
}
});
*setSerializationLevel, setSerializableColumns,setColumnHidden - could be used only in PRO version
2) After column is hidden you can create new dhtmlxWindow, attach to it dhtmlxGrid and load grid from the serialized string:
//creating dhtmlxWindow
dhxWins = new dhtmlXWindows();
dhxWins.setImagePath(“dhtmlxWindows/codebase/imgs/”);
function openWindow(str,cellIndex){
var w1 = dhxWins.createWindow(“w1”, 300, 50, 300, 300);
var grid = w1.attachGrid();
grid.parse(str);
w1.setText(grid.getColumnLabel(0));
dhxWins.window(“w1”).button(“close”).attachEvent(“onClick”,function(){
mygrid.setColumnHidden(cellIndex,false);
w1.close();
});
}
