context menu - multiple selection

hello,

is it possible to do mutiple selection in context menu (integrated in grid)?

or maybe is it possible to prevent the context menu from closing when a value is clicked? and at the same time change the selected item's color/image/...??

i'm trying to use context menu integrated in grid to work somehow similar to a clist (since clist cannot store id values but only labels, it's useless for us).


Thank you,

Unfortunately it not possible, context menu has hardcoded logic, which force closing on item clicking. Also, only one item can be selected per menu.

>>since clist cannot store id values but only labels, it's useless for us
Technically it not so hard to extend functionality of clist - existing setValue method need to be extended to store value attribute, and edit method slightly updated to use values instead of labels. ( you can contact sales@dhtmlx.com about component customization )

as you suggested, i contacted sales regarding the customization.

I have yet to receive an answer. Could you please tell me how you usually work out the customization?
Does it need an extra cost? What if we have a commercial license?


Thank you,


josh
