Hello, please modify the #treesEditing sample like this:

isc.TreeGrid.create({
    ID: "employeeTree",
    top:30,
    width: 500,
    height: 250,
    dataSource: "employees",
    autoFetchData: true,
    canEdit: true,
    canReorderRecords: true,
    canAcceptDroppedRecords: true,
    nodeIcon: "icons/16/person.png",
    folderIcon: "icons/16/person.png",
    showOpenIcons: false,
    showDropIcons: false,
    closedIconSuffix: "",
    fields: [
        {name: "Name"},
        {name: "Job"},
        {name: "Salary"}
    ]
});

isc.IButton.create({
   title:"Test",
   click:"employeeTree.startEditingNew()"
})

If you click the 'Test' button, you'll get this error in the developer console:

Any news on this issue? Still present in 2016-04-15 builds, and it affects also 10.1 and 11.1 branches.

Hello, I've just read in the docs:

void TreeGrid.startEditingNew() ([newValues, suppressFocus])
	This inherited ListGrid API is not supported by the TreeGrid since adding a new tree node arbitrarily at the end of the tree is usually not useful. Instead, to add a new tree node and begin editing it, use either of these two strategies:

Actually it worked for my use case in the past. Now I'll try to rework my code using the first strategy.

Sorry for the bogus report.
