FeatureTable Bulk Edit Implementation Issue

WongChunKang — Mon, 25 Jul 2022 08:34:24 GMT

I am trying to implement bulk edit feature on FeatureTable using @arcgis/core-4.24.7, i.e. editing on one field will apply the same edit on other selected rows.. However, I am facing some inconsistent updates after a few edits later. You can view such inconsistency around 00:29 mark from the following video, where heights was updated from 10 to 5, decks should stay at 8 but instead get reverted back to 9.

(view in My Videos)

The code can be downloaded from the GitHub repo here: https://github.com/chunkangwong/arcgis-featureTable-bulk-edit, along with installation instruction. You may follow the steps as shown in the video.

I replaced the logic of extracting the selection-change event to keep track of the selected rows with the hidden, undocumented FeatureTable.grid.selectedItems._items property of FeatureTable. This solved the bug, even though it is not recommended. For anyone interested, you may refer to my GitHub repo here

I found out another hidden event emitted from the individual column of FeatureTable that is "value-change". This event is emitted whenever an edit is registered on the map. Combining this knowledge, the code becomes more streamlined. For anyone interested, you may refer to my GitHub repo here
