Is it possible to have a completely custom bubble editor?

mlong

We have two different dialogs that our users are used to seeing that we would like to integrate into DataTables Editor. What we'd like to see happen is instead of the bubble editor popping up when a user clicks on the cell, we'd like to have our custom dialogs pop up. For example, we have a "description" field that needs a WYSIWYG editor like ckeditor to pop up in the bubble instead of a textarea. Is this possible? and if so how?

Hi,

Editor provides plug-ins for the main editing form display using "display controller plug-ins" which are described in the Editor manual. However, it doesn't provide a way to control the display of the bubble I'm afraid. That is statically coded into Editor core at the moment (I'll look at decoupling it in future).

What you could potentially do is use a display controller with the main form rather than the bubble form, and just hide the fields you don't want to be editable (field().hide()). That might achieve the same effect.
