In Dialog edit mode, when you start editing the currently selected row data will be shown on a dialog.
You can change the cell values and save edited data to the data source.
To enable Dialog edit, set the editSettings.mode
as Dialog.

You can customize the appearance of the edit dialog in the actionComplete
event based on requestType as beginEdit or add.
In the following example, the dialog’s properties like header text, showCloseIcon, height have been changed while editing and adding the records.
Also the locale text for the Save and Cancel buttons has been changed by overriding the default locale strings.
You can refer the Grid Default text
list for more localization.

You can show hidden columns or hide visible column’s editor in the dialog while editing the grid record using actionBegin
and actionComplete
events.
In the actionBegin
event, based on requestType as beginEdit or add. We can show or hide the editor by using column.visible
property.
In the actionComplete
event, based on requestType as save. We can reset the properties back to the column state.
In the below example, we have rendered the grid columns CustomerID as hidden column and ShipCountry as visible column. In the edit mode, we have changed the CustomerID column to visible state and ShipCountry column to hidden state.

Wizard helps you create intuitive step-by-step forms to fill. You can achieve the wizard like editing by using the dialog template feature. It support your own editing template by defining editSettings.mode
as Dialog and editSettingsTemplate
as template variable to define the editors.
The following example demonstrate the wizard like editing in the grid with the unobtrusive Validation.
