Multiple rows per record

Hi,
When rendering a record (retrieved from a database) with numerous fields it is useful to display these field across many rows in a grid. That is, each field is in a cell within a grid and as there a many cells more that one row is needed to display these cells.

Any action on the grid (eg sorting) or other events will operate on the record (group of rows) rather than on individual rows.

Is this achievable using Grid?

There is no such thing as rows grouping, but you can have some cells mergerd for rows in question by using rowspan, in such case grid will preserve order of rows inside "group"

Original view

1	2	3
4	5	6
7	8	8

Combined view ( rowspan )

0	1	2	3
	4	5	6
	7	8	9

If you plan to use such functionality - please contact us directly at support@dhtmlx.com , we will provide fixed build, because original one has some known issue related to sorting with rowspans.
