Hi, jqGrid is great. It definitely help me once I understand how to apply it.
I tried the inline cell editing. The current process is:
- Click on a cell or; when a cell is already selected press <Enter (to editing mode)>
- type data
- <Enter(to save)>
- arrow key to navigate to next cell
- <Enter (to editing mode)>
- type data
- <Enter(to save)>
- arrow key to navigate to next cell and the process continues.
As most will expect, user wants a more easier way to do mass data entry.
Has anyone manage to find an altermative plugin or incoding via jqgrid methods/function to complement jqGrid to make mass data entry smoother?
I am looking at process such as:
- The top left most cell is already in editing mode (after data has been loaded)
- type data
- move to next cell by arrow/tab key# (in which case previous cell data is autosave if changes is made)
- at new cell the cell is already turned to editing mode once in focus (no need for hitting <Enter> key)
#Note that left/right arrows are for left/right char positioning of the data in the cell. Hence to navigate to left and right column, to use shift-tab/tab
#up/down arrow is meant for going up down line if cell is textarea. But in my case I don't use textarea so will like up/down arrow to navigate to top/bottom of current cell
Is the above process do-able using jqgrid? Can someone comment how they may have make user experience better?
Thanks.

Hello,
This is interesting, but will be maybe for the future releases.
