Hello,
The property assigned to a grid cell has a codified value.
When displaying it I use the CustomColumnDisplayText event to show it as the user understands it.
How can I do the same when editing?
Thank you

Hello,
To accomplish this task, handle the ShownEditor event and modify the active editor's EditValue. To get the currently active editor, access the GridView.ActiveEditor property. Additionally, you can handle the ValidatingEditor event to modify the value before it is saved.
For example:
C#private void GridView1_ShownEditor(object sender, EventArgs e) {
GridView view = sender as GridView;
if (view.FocusedColumn.FieldName == "Column") {
var edit = view.ActiveEditor;
edit.EditValue = "DisplayValue";
}
}
private void GridView1_ValidatingEditor(object sender, BaseContainerValidateEditorEventArgs e) {
GridView view = sender as GridView;
if (view.FocusedColumn.FieldName == "Column") {
e.Value = "DataValue";
}
}
I hope this helps. Should you have additional questions, please let me know.
