How To Hide Column in jQgrid but show this Column

Question

I want a form of control I use. But the number of fields that are too high. How can I display the grid, but only some of the fields in the form add/edit popup panel show all fields ???

Answer 1

Use hidden property for your column

example:

<sjg:gridColumn name="a_unid" index="a_unid" title="Ref id"  hidden="true"/>

Answer 2

Here is how you can do this:

colModel:[
    {
        name:'email',
        label: 'E-mail',
        editable: true,
        hidden: true,
        editrules: {edithidden: true}
    }

The E-mail column will not appear in the grid but it will be present in the edit dialog.

BTW to achieve the opposite (display in the grid but not in the edit dialog):

colModel:[
    {
        name:'email',
        label: 'E-mail',
        editable: false
    }
