Remarks
By default, in-place editor buttons are shown for the focused cell only. Use the ShowButtonMode property to change this behavior.
Individual columns can override the ShowButtonMode setting with their GridColumn.ShowButtonMode properties.
Regardless of the OptionsView.ShowButtonMode and GridColumn.ShowButtonMode settings, editor buttons are simultaneously shown in all cells that contain in-place editors with the RepositoryItemButtonEdit.TextEditStyle setting set to HideTextEdit. To show these editor buttons only in the focused row or focused cell, supply editors to grid cells dynamically, with the GridView.CustomRowCellEdit event.
