Single click editing with Batch mode in Blazor TreeGrid Component

7 Aug 20236 minutes to read

A cell is made editable on a single click with a Batch mode of editing in TreeGrid, by using the EditCell method.

Set the Mode property of TreeGridSelectionSettings component to Both and bind the CellSelected event to Tree Grid. In the CellSelected event handler, call the EditCell method based on the clicked cell.
