Hi,
 
Is it possible to have inplacebuttons on a category? In fact it doesn't matter what kind of item as long I can click on it and it fires an event
Any possible solution for this?
 
Thanks in advance

I think that this is not possible, because Categories are hidden when you sort by property.
I solve this problem with using a PropertyItem and childitems.
The mainitem has buttons and will be canceled for edit in the RequestEdit event.
So the buttons can be used.

Hi,
 
Yes I know I can use a PropertyItem with childitems. I was hoping for some kind of workaround. Maybe the CJ developers will add this feature  in the next version. 
 
I would rather use the category items because it looks nicer. Only the caption is selected and not the whole item area.  When using PropertyItems you don't see the difference between a main or a child item and I see a small flicker when cancelling the request edit.
 
Thanks anyway for your reply

You can change the captionmetrics and valuemetrics to apear as category, and if the cpu is fast, you have no flicker.

Hi,
 
That's not entirely true, the selection area of a category is only the caption and second the identation of the childs increases when using a propertygrid item (without workarounds, but we don't want that) . I think there are advantages and disadvantages with this and I believe it's still a workaround and when using it this way you have just the looks of an extended Treeview with 2 columns. That brings me to the original post: is it possible to have inplace buttons to a PropertyItemCategory?
 
Thank you anyway for your replies
