Prevent row becoming editable during double click - jqGrid

Question

Ours is a Struts2-jQuery Grid implementation , it is similar to jqGrid. We have made our Grid as

multiselect="true" and editinline="true"

We have added 'Custom Edit' buttons in each row's data and want the row to become editable only via that. We have removed the navbar/tool bar icons for 'Edit'.

Currently, the data row becomes editable even during a double click on the row. We are able to capture the event, but how to cancel out the action ? we tried returning false, stop.. but they did not work. We even tried stop.propogation and still the row was becoming editable.

How can we stop this ?

Answer 1

add this to your jqgrid along with other parameters

ondblClickRow: function(){
  return false ;
},

OR using jquery u can bind double click event (ondblClickRow) to you grid and return false from that function.
