I have tried several Form Events, like BeforeShow Form, but I'm not quite sure how to accomplish the following goal.

Let's say I have 5 columns in my grid. I want 4 columns to be editable:true when adding a new record. I only want 1 field to be editable:true upon editing.

I found SetColProp, and was thinking I could change the value of editable by potentially passing it as a button parameter for both add and edit within the NavGrid definition.

I have tried several variations of the following code (upon several different events), but am not getting the behavior that I am looking for.

beforeInitData:function(){$("#list").setColProp('account',{editable:false});},

beforeInitData:function(){$("#list").setColProp('account',{editable:true}).trigger("reloadGrid");},

Anybody tried this before? One thing I did try, was creating account and a separate add_account field. I was working with the hidden and hidedlg properties, but the road I was heading down was getting a bit messy... Thx in advance.

Hello,

The beforeInitData is the right place for this. The only additional parameter that you should set is:

recreateForm : true;

This recreates the form every time.

Another possible solution is to use beforeShowForm event where you can show and hide some columns according to condition. Every column in the form (label + input field) is combination of tr_+column_name from colModel. Something like $("#tr_account").hide() will hide the account input again with the label.
