You probably found out already but for others, yes, it is what you meant.

You define all the fields in the grid, some visible, some hidden and change the editrules for those hidden in the grid to see them in the form.

Hey thanks for the reply.

I am not sure that that is quite what I meant.

In my grid I would have ID, Name and Address...but when the row is clicked and the edit form comes up I also want to let them edit the entire record including City, Prov/State, County, Notes etc....and these fields are NOT part of the grid.

Are you saying that the fields need to be part of the grid, only hidden for this to work?

Yes, you set the item to hidden. The in the editrules you set edithidden:true

Do a doc search for editorules it is easy though, even I figured it out. 🙂

        {
            name: 'USER_ID',
            index: 'USER_ID',
            width: 75,
            hidden: true,
            editable: true,
            edittype: 'text',
            editoptions: {
                disabled:true
            },
            editrules: {
                edithidden: false
            }

Hiya,

Is it possible to add additonal fields (from the MySQL database via JSON) to the form when bringing it up for editing or adding?

Or can you only show the fields on the forms for the columns that are part of the grid?

If you can do it....any examples?

Thanks!

Jim
