showCalendarForCell()

showCalendarForCell(boolean stopCellEdit)

showCalendarForCell(int row, int column)

showCalendarForCell(int row, int column, boolean stopCellEdit)

Parameters

Variable

Description

stopCellEdit

Specifies if the InputD should leave edit mode after a date is selected by the user and the calendar is dismissed.

row

Specifies the row of the cell within the grid.

column

Specifies the column of the cell within the grid.

Return Value

Returns True if the specified, active, or selected cell's style was an InputD and the calendar was selected. Returns False if the cell's style was not an InputD.

Remarks

If no row and column are specified, the calendar will be requested for the currently selected cell.

If the cell is not an InputD, no calendar will be displayed and no exception will be thrown.

The default value for stopCellEdit is False. Thus, if no boolean value is provided for stopCellEdit, the cell will remain in edit mode after the calendar has been dismissed by the user.
