I have to use a text box as a custom control editor for FilterRow of a Janus GridEX so that I can handle its TextChanged event and do some asynchronous stuff while maintaining the focus on the current cell. Here's the code :

gridEX1.RootTable.Columns.Cast<GridEXColumn>().Where(x=>x.Visible).ToList().ForEach(x=>x.EditType=EditType.Custom);
            gridEX1.InitCustomEdit += GridEX1_InitCustomEdit;
            gridEX1.EndCustomEdit += GridEX1_EndCustomEdit;

and

private void GridEX1_InitCustomEdit(object sender, InitCustomEditEventArgs e)
        {
            txt.TextChanged -= TxtOnTextChanged;
            txt.Text = e.Value?.ToString()+e.EditChar;
            e.EditControl = txt;
            txt.TextChanged += TxtOnTextChanged;
        }

        private void GridEX1_EndCustomEdit(object sender, EndCustomEditEventArgs e)
        {
            e.Value = txt.Text;
        }

Everything is working fine except that hitting BackSapce on filter row doesn't put the cell in edit mode ( InitCustomEdit does not fire)

Any idea how should I solve this problem ?

Have you tried ovveriding IsInputKey/Char ? – CSharpie Jan 06 '16 at 10:22
No. How should I do that ? where I have to override it? – Beatles1692 Jan 06 '16 at 10:37
Derive a class from GridEx and then override that method. – CSharpie Jan 06 '16 at 10:37
You can try handle the backspace key in the keypressed event and put the control in editmode – Sievajet Jan 06 '16 at 10:52
@Sievajet the problem is that whenever I run `gridEx.FilterRow.BeginEdit()` I get an error that says only rows that represent a real record can be edited. – Beatles1692 Jan 06 '16 at 11:42
Try setting the gridEX or current gridEXColumn EditMode – Sievajet Jan 06 '16 at 11:58
