Hello, please try this testcase in the enterNewRows sample:

isc.ListGrid.create({
    ID: "countryList",
    width:500, height:224,
    // use server-side dataSource so edits are retained across page transitions
    dataSource: countryDS,
    // display a subset of fields from the datasource
    fields:[
        {name:"countryName"},
        {name:"continent"},
        {name:"member_g8"},
        {name:"population"},
        {name:"independence"}
    ],
    autoFetchData: true
})

isc.IButton.create({
    top:250,
    title:"Edit New",
    click:"countryList.startEditingNew()"
});

The grid is not editable, but after calling startEditingNew, every record becomes editable (the same happens if I call startEditing)

Instead of having canEdit set to false and then going into edit mode via APIs like startEditingNew(), it seems you want to allow the grid to be edited (canEdit:true), but set the editEvent to "none"
[See https://smartclient.com/smartclient-...Grid.editEvent]
