Customization in the attribute grid of Inspector

ShaneTsh

 

Hi,

I am using the Inspector class to display the attribute grid for any table for one oid using Load method of the inspector. But this will load the whole table with its columns and values. But I want to achieve 2 things:

1. Can we load the table for that one oid with some fixed columns with their values but not the whole table?

2. I have another button in my custom UI which will save some data not from the attribute grid but under the implementation of that button. So this button can update data for few of those default columns. Can we highlight those changed columns in some way for example can we make those column names as bold or some other way to highlight those columns which will tell that these are the modified columns?

Sorry.  You also need to override an additional method in your implementation of the InspectorProvider.   Add the override for the AttributesOrder.   See the code snippet below. 

Also note that your add-in does not need to iterate through the attributes calling the IsVisible method after having loaded it.  The internal Pro code of the inspector control code calls the InspectorProvider methods.   All the add-in needs to do is create the inspector from your provider, create the embeddable control and then load the row.

  internal class CustomProvider : InspectorProvider
  {
    public override bool? IsVisible(Attribute attr)
    {
      if (attr.FieldName == "POP1990")
        return false;

      return true;
    }

    public override IEnumerable<Attribute> AttributesOrder(IEnumerable<Attribute> attrs)
    {
      return attrs;
    }
  }
