Popup editor issues

Hello Sarvesh,

This functionality is not supported out of the box, but you can easily achieve it with a few lines of code.

1. Hook up to the click event of the add new record button ( .k-grid-add ) and set a flag variable to true.
2. Hook up to the edit event of the grid and perform changes to the editor window.
3. Set the flag back to false.

Kind regards,

Hi,

Thanks for the solution. Managed to get the title to change but facing strange issue while changing button text. Below is my edit handler.

function editFunc(e) {
if (e.model.FirstName != "") {
//Edit Mode
}
else {
//Create Mode
$("div.k-window-content").parent().children("div.k-window-titlebar").children("span.k-window-title").text("Create");
var node = $("div .k-window-content a.k-button:first").contents().filter(isTextNode).replaceWith(document.createTextNode("Create"));
}
}

function isTextNode(){
   return (this.nodeType === 3);
}

When i click on add record for the first time the text for the "Update" button is changed to "Create". If i cancel the popup and click on add record again the button text does not change to "Create".

Regards,
Sarvesh

Hello Sarvesh,

I believe the problem is not directly related to kendo grid component - it is caused by the way you determine which action is being performed (creating or editing). It seems that after cancelling the popup and clicking on the "Add new record" button for a second time the logic in your edit function does not detect the create mode.

In the attached file you will find an example that shows one possible implementation of this case.
I hope this helps.
