It is possible to have a drop down inside any of the grid widgets in Thingworx?

I want each cell of one entire column in a grid to have drop-downs, so that the user can select the value from the drop-down when the table is editable.

Is it possible to achieve this functionality using any of the grid widgets (grid, advanced grid ..etc ) in Thingworx?

What should i do to implement this functionality?

Hi @Dabbler_Aish

by default the Grids only display Data from an InfoTable - with no additional Widgets configurable.

You could use Collection / Repeater Widgets to build some kind of Grid / row-based display where you can use Dropdowns or List Widgets.

 

I've also left some comments at https://community.ptc.com/t5/ThingWorx-Developers/How-to-add-button-in-column-cell-of-advanced-grid-widget/m-p/587822#M33324 - which is a similar question to yours, just with Buttons

 

I hope this helps,

Michael
