This property defines the editor control visibility within each column. A value of 0 means that the editor control will be shown only during cell editing, while a value of 1 means that the editor control will be always visible. The default value is 0 for every column.

This property affects the following editor controls: Combo-Box, Date-Entry, Entry-Field and List-Box.

Check-Box and Push-Button are always visible, instead.

If no editor control was displayed upon the Grid column, then a basic Entry-Field editor is used.

Since this setting affects each column, a list of values is needed.

When values are enclosed between parentheses, a new list is defined at once. The snippet below specifies that the editor visibility is 0 for the 1st column and 1 for the 2nd column. The editor visibility for the other columns, if any, will be 0, the default.

When a single value greater than or equal to zero is set, it is appended to the list.

Setting the property to -1 resets the list.

 

Example - Set editors visibility by reading values from a Occurs

Example - Modify a 3 columns grid to always show the editor of the 1st column
