v4.3.0

4.3.0 (2024-01-20)

Quick Info

This release brings some great new features, the most interesting one was contributed by @zewa666 which is a new Row Base Editing. The Row Based Edit plugin allows you to edit either a single or multiple specific rows at a time, while disabling the rest of the grid rows. See our new Example 22 and new Row Base Editing docs.

Another great but smaller feature is a new reorderable column option to help lock a column in place (for more info see PR #1357 which include a small animated gif of the feature). Note that this feature is better when used with column position as first or last columns in the grid.

⚠️ Warnings

I did add and set reorderable: false to the following 4 plugins, they can all be overriden when instantiating the plugin via their respective options

• Checkbox Selector Column (Row Selection)
• Row Detail
• Row Move Manager
• Row Base Editor

Thanks

A huge thanks for @zewa666 contribution, the new Row Base Editing is most probably the biggest contribution made so far to this project. Thanks a lot!!! 🎉
