maybe integrate jTruncate as a formatter so using it would be easy

i also wish to use multiple formatters for a column

something like ... formatters:{{name, options: {}}[,{name, options:{}}] ... [,{name, options:{}}]}

in colModel

The easiest solution, if you are using IE, is to put

.ui-jqgrid tr.jqgrow td
{
    text-overflow: ellipsis;
}

in your css file.

Otherwise there are a number of jQuery plugins (jTruncate, etc.) that will do this for you. The problem with these plugins is that you have to specify each element you want it applied to.

Hope this helps,

Reg

currently there is none so i have to create custom formatter for it

what's the best way to do it?

thanks in advance
