Thanks for the reply! Ideally would either be replacing the buttons or the relationship form view. Our users certainly want a grid to edit since they live and breathe Excel today. Will look into the button replacement. Thanks!
Hi Jeff,
let me know if it worked! Replacing the CUI elements would be the most elegant solution. I have never tried it for this specific use case. In the past relationship buttons weren´t designed with CUI and hard to replace.
Looking forward to hear your result!
Incremental progress. Replaced the create new & delete row buttons with copies of the originals which was quite easy. They're identical to originals, minus the "init" method. This allows the items to be created or rows deleted without unlocking the parent. Two remaining issues:
1) Have to open the item to save it. Haven't found an OOTB method to copy over to a save button that works yet.
2) The relationship grid doesn't respond the same as unlocking the parent. dropdowns & type ahead fields don't work, so user still has to go to the form to edit.
Post more if I get it sorted.
