I want to make pop up windows for each columns in my table component to explain where the numbers in this column come from. The link below is a example of pop up on pie chart. Does anyone know how to do it in a data table?
Popup Component Example in pentaho CDE - Popup on Pie & in the popup showing bar chart or any other CDE component
EDIT 2017:
I'd like to present another way (maybe a better way) to access the rows in a table. Now what I am doing is this:
Dashboards.fireChange('my_variable',e.tableData[e.rowIdx][column_index]);
e.rowIdx returns the index for the row I am clicking. When I use e.tableData[e.rowIdx], I am able to get all the columns in that row, and knowing what column gives me the desired value, I can access it using the column index.
Original post:
I'll relate my experience. I have one table that, when I click in a row, executes another query in my dashboard.
What I did, and I don't know if this is the best way of doing it, was executing a javascript code when I click on the table, and check if the column clicked is the one I need the information from.
In the table component's "clickAction" property, I have this js:
function f(e){
if(e.category == 'COLUMN_NAME_DESIRED')
{
Dashboards.fireChange('my_variable', e.value);
}
}
And I have another table component listening to 'my_variable'. So, when the value changes, the dashboard loads this other component.
In your specific case, I would do this:
function f(e){
if(e.category == 'COLUMN_NAME_1')
{
alert('this row represents X');
}
if(e.category == 'COLUMN_NAME_2')
{
alert('this row represents Y');
}
}
Now, if you want to use a pop-up dialog and not a js:alert, look for some css examples. I think it would help you.

I am have been trying to find a solution to my google sheet issue and have tried quite a few workarounds thus far, to no avail. I imagine I may need to use javascript to do the action, however, I am a beginner to javascript.
Here is what I would like the sheet to do.
Check 'sheet#2' and see if an item in the specified range is set to "out-of-stock"
Sheet#2
If the item in the range is set to "out-of-stock", then remove the item from the data validation list on 'sheet#1' and if it is "in-stock" then show the item on the data validation list.
Sheet#1
Here are some things I have tried thus far (if it helps):
on sheet#2 when an item is set to out stock, conditional format it, to make the cell text white (not visible). This works well for that particular sheet. however, data validation lists do not display the data it pulls exactly as it appears (so the text still shows on the dropdown list)
IF statement. I've tried a WHOLE LOTTA IF and IFS statements. This did not work, because you cannot have an if statement in the same cell as a data validation cell and b/c the cell name will likely need to be constantly changed in the future. (But I did, however, find a workaround to another issue I was trying to solve for a day now WHOOP WHOOP!)
Oh and I also tried conditional formating the cell so that if it ='s out of stock white out the cell... however I get an error that conditional formatting does not work across 2 sheets
... so yeah if anyone may know of a solution to get this to work I will forever appreciate it! I'll keep scouring google for solutions in the meantime.
For the sake of simplicity, I've created a sample spreadsheet with two sheets: Sheet 1 and "Stock".
Sheet 1
Stock
Solution
I've created an Apps Script function to set the Data Validation as you have specified.
I've used the Javascript filter and map functions to simplify getting the data, but basically:
I get all the rows from the Stock sheet and load them into "memory"
I then discard from "memory" the rows that do not have their second column (row[1]) equal to "In Stock".
Then I get the remaining rows and grab only their first column (row[0]).
I then create a new DataValidation object (with it's builder) that uses the list we got above and assign it to the range I want to have validated.
//VARIABLES
var rangeToValidate = "B2:B";
var validateSheet = "Sheet1";
var optionSheet = "Stock";
function refreshDataValidation() {
var inStockOptions = SpreadsheetApp.getActive().getSheetByName(optionSheet).getDataRange().getValues()
.filter(function (row) { return (row[1]=="In Stock")})
.map(function(row) {return row[0]});
SpreadsheetApp.getActive().getSheetByName(validateSheet).getRange(rangeToValidate)
.setDataValidation(
SpreadsheetApp.newDataValidation().requireValueInList(inStockOptions).build()
);
}
Also, by adding some code with Apps Script, the sheet will make sure that your drop-down is always up-to-date.
I am refreshing the drop-down every time the sheet is opened and every time there is an edit to the Stock sheet on the B column.
//When the sheet is opened, refresh the data validation
function onOpen(e) {
refreshDataValidation();
}
//When a change is made to the Stock sheet, also refresh validation
function onEdit(e) {
var range = e.range;
if (range.getSheet() == SpreadsheetApp.getActive().getSheetByName(optionSheet) && range.getColumn() == 2) {
refreshDataValidation();
}
}
Hope this helps!
Okay guys I found a solution, anyone visiting this post in the future here you go!!!
So yes, you can use the script as provided above. However, if you already have other scripts, data validations, and other formatting's going then ,like me, you may actually run into a lot of errors and conflicting issues.
As a workaround here is what I did to get everything to work properly. you will need a total of 3 sheets: a main sheet, a 2nd sheet with your options, and a 3rd sheet to house the pulled data.
On the 2nd sheet, be sure to have a column that shows if the item is "in-stock" or "out-of-stock" (I did it as a dropdown menu)
On the 3rd sheet select the cell where you would like the data to show. And use the filter function formula to pull only the rows from sheet 2 that are equal to "in-stock"
Formula syntax: =(FILTER (range, condition1, [condition2, ...])
My Formula: =FILTER( sheet2!G3:R5, sheet2!I3:I5 <> "out-of-stock")
sheet2!G3:R5 = the range of rows/columns I want it to pull from.
sheet2!I3:I5 = the column I would like it to look for the words "in stock" or "out of stock" in
<>"out-of-stock" = show me the data if a cell in column I3 does not equal "out-of-stock" (meaning, only show in-stock options)
As you can see the formula will pull/show you all the rows that = "in-stock", anything you have set to "out-of-stock" will not show on the 3rd sheet.
Last part,
On the main sheet select the column you would like for your drop down list to show in. Add the data validation being sure to list from the range on the 3rd sheet (not sheet 2).
Now you can hide the 3rd sheet as you should no longer need it, unless debugging.
Finally, As you can see now, my main sheet will only show the items in the drop down list that are set to "in-stock", out of stock options are removed from drop down list, unless set back to in-stock. (see how pic3 only shows 2 options in drop list, although pic1 shows that there are 3 options available).
so now basically if I change an item to "out-of-stock" on the 2nd sheet, the item will be removed from drop-down list on the main sheet, AND if I change an item to "in-stock" the item will be added/displayed on the drop list. The 3rd sheet is no longer needed. This solution is perfect if you have multiple users and would only like for them to be able to select an option that is "in-stock"!
Hope this helps someone!!! And thank you to the people of above who gave other possible solutions!!
I am trying to add rows dynamically inside a grid using a button and remove individual rows using an action column function. I have two text fields (name, email) inside the grid on each row. So when the user hits the add button, a new row should appear with name and email fields. The third column would be an action column and when the button in the action column is clicked the entire row should be removed.
It would greatly help me out if somebody could share some sample code for me to get started.
There are some great code examples in the docs. This is where you have to head first, before asking here.
Look at this row editing example.
I have an application (using SlickGrid) where I need to get the column name or id at any time when user clicks on a cell (this pulls up a menu specific to the data in that column/cell). Grid works fine initially but if the column is moved (drag/drop), the column name/id does not follow the drop but remains mapped to it's initial column position.
Has anyone else seen this and, if so, how did you fix it?
Thanks
Are you trying to reuse the list of columns defined in your html code? You should get the list of columns from the grid instead. The following code should do what you are expecting (i.e. printout the name of the column in which you clicked a cell):
grid.onClick.subscribe(function(e,args) {
var allColumns=grid.getColumns();
console.log(allColumns[args.cell].name);
});
You can add that code in one of the examples provided with the source code (say "example3-editing.html"), drag-drop some columns around and check the console after clicking on a cell.
Datagrid is in content,When trying to access client side function for the cells in the datagrid,its always showing at 0 position
suppose i have 10 rows,for each row "Test button" i should invoke the client side java script.
For each row "Test button" client side script is displaying message at first row only.
in datagrid i am binding the description and button to every row in datagrid
so i have added Testbutton.attributes.add("onclick","return javascriptfunction();"); in
datagrid_itembound.Iam showing one div in client side function
but that is working only for one row,when iam trying to click test button in second row,its
showing that div in first row instead of second row
i want similar functunality like displaying of flag button in stackoverflow.
The datagrid/gridview results in a table. You could get the table by it's ID using getElementById use getElementsByTagName to get the rows/columns and/or use jQuery to help do it for you.

Im looking for a way to render an html table as an editable datgrid, with the ability to clone individual rows. I dont need to save any of the changes made, just superficially edit the cells because i then use a jquery plugin to scrape the table as is on screen and save it.
Ive tried jeditable, but its designed for posting the output of its edits to a page, not just superficially making the changes.
Ideally, i could control what types of inputs are displayed onclick based on what column they are on. The table cells are unnamed. If they need to be named, there are a total of 34 columns, so i would need to know how to name those individually.
Thanks in advance.
Jeditable's target can be a function (see the "Submitting to function instead of URL" section of the jeditable homepage) - you could pass an empty handler and use it.
[Edit]
The handler should return a string (that will be displayed on the page)
(taken from the example page)
$('#test').editable(function(value, settings) {
return(value);
}, {
type : 'textarea',
submit : 'OK',
});
It work nicely, I just tried it out.
