    Hi Isomorphic,

    I agree that it would not look nice and I think I like your idea with the pop-up dialog.
    I already find the way the slider acts as editor in a ListGrid a bit confusing (by the way, there it works without fixedRecordHeights:false).

    I'll go now with multiple:true SelectItem until I get complaints in case a customer has a too-long list there.

    So for me this is a non-issue right now, but I still think there is a bug with focus and something else, which makes the application very unresponsive if you have the editor open an e.g. click the "customEditors.js" tab.
    With just an added fixedRecordHeights:false in the testcase the design is even more broken.

    Best regards

    While you can use fixedRecordHeights:false to cause row expansion, we wouldn't recommend using MultiComboBoxItem as an inline editor because of the requirement for row expansion, which is awkward.

    We would recommend either a multiple:true SelectItem or, for larger lists, a pop-up dialog with a ListGrid.

    11.1p ListGrid with MultiComboBoxItem as editor

    Hi Isomorphic,

    testing this testcase with MultiComboBoxItem which might be the better editor here if my pickList is long (which it can be), I noticed some problems, that are not BatchUploader-specific, but also happen in normal ListGrids.
    Please see this modified testcase (v11.1p_2018-01-07):
    Code:
    isc.ListGrid.create({
        ID: "countryList",
        width:900, height:224, alternateRecordStyles:true, 
        cellHeight:42, wrapCells:true,
        dataSource: countryDS,
        fields:[
            {name:"countryName", width:100},
            {name:"government", width:175,
                editorType:"TextAreaItem",
                editorProperties:{height:40}
            },
            {name:"population", width:100, 
                editorType:"SpinnerItem"
            },
            {name:"independence", width:225,
                editorProperties:{useTextField:false}
            },
            {name:"continent", width:300,
                editorType:"MultiComboBoxItem"
            }
        ],
        autoFetchData: true,
        canEdit: true,
        editEvent: "click"
    })
    As you can see the edited row does not expand, which leads to a strange design. I'd think the row should expand like here the Slider Editor does

    Also editing itself is hard. The text-entry field itself always looses focus automatically (I'm testing with Chromium 63.0.3239.132 / current Win 10) and the pickList opens on third click of the "open" arrow.
    Entering a "null" cell again (after removing an entry and exiting the cell) shows a selected item without name, I can remove via "x"-click again.

    Best regards
