Hi Tonio,
the grid is probably the least complete component of Jx in comparison to other frameworks. It is currently in the state we need it to be in for what we use it for, but we have certainly discussed lots of ideas around the grid.
ExtJS has done an amazing job with their grid controls. I am not a big fan of how they use the DOM to build their representations - I find it a very heavy handed approach - but it may well be that when we start to discuss how to implement sorting, grouping, editing etc that my approach will turn out to be very limiting and we will have to redo the code.
I am definitely looking for ideas on which features are most desirable for the grid so we can improve it (and willing bodies to help out!) ... on my short list are:
* automatic sizing of column widths based on data * user-resizable column widths * text alignment of data in cells * editable cells * sortable based on columns * pagination Cheers Paul On 12-Nov-08, at 4:20 AM, Tonio wrote:
Just a question : have you planned to add feature to your grid component ? (ie sort, group, etc) This is the first thing I see which I could miss using this instead of extjs. Tonio
