How can I get a field to not show up in the editor pop-up window if multiple rows are selected?

I have a table that has a field that I have disabled the ability to change. It works fine if only one row is selected, but if you select multiple rows and tell it you want to change that field. The field is disabled and is blank. I want to hide this field if the user selects more that one row, but show it if only one row is selected.

Your best bet would be to use initEdit in combination with show() and hide() to show and hide the field as required.

I did it like this and it worked perfect.

Editor.on('initEdit', function () {
            Editor.show();
            if (Table.rows('.selected').data().length > 1) {
                Editor.hide('active');
            }
        });

Thanks for the fast response.

Perfect! The only change I would suggest is that you use Table.rows({selected:true}).any(). That's two small changes - the first to use any() which simply saves a few characters, but more importantly use the selected selector-modifier option to get the selected rows (manual).
