Select "Live Data Manipulation" / "Add row"

If you add an item with the field "Ship via" = "FedEx", after submitting the grid column displays "FE" instead of "FedEx"

Isn't this a bug ? Should I report it in the bugs thread forum ?

In the colModel, I have set the edittype option of a field to "select". It works fine when editGridRow and addGridRow methods are invoked, as expected. But the column grid still displays the value ( instead of the related lookup name ). Also when viewGridRow method is invoked, the value is displayed.

Is it possible to make the grid look up for the names instead of the values when displaying columns or when viewing a row ?

Thanks,

Aldo
