Remarks

The CustomCellEdit event fires when an user starts to edit a cell and allows you to supply a custom editor from the DXEditors Library to the cell. Use the event’s Cell, ColumnIndex and RowIndex parameters to identify the currently edited cell. To specify the in-place editor, set the event’s EditSettings parameter to the BaseEditSettings descendant corresponding to the editor you want to use. The *EditSettings class provides all the information needed to create a fully-functional editor. The actual editor is created when a user starts to edit a cell, and is automatically destroyed when editing is completed.

Refer to the Custom Cell In-place Editors topic for more information on how to embed custom in-place editors in worksheet cells.
