Allow edition in data editor

[User (Legacy)]

Hi!

I'm trying to Enable the end users so they can alter data through the data 

editor with the property AllowEdit as follows:

chart1.DataEditor = true;

chart1.AllowEdit = true;

...

chart1.Extensions.Add(Olap1);

It seems I'm doing something wrong because it doesn't let me do any change 

in the data editor, (the cell turns gray when I double click on it to edit 

the value, and the change does not remain because I have to press ESC in 

order to exit from the cell, because it does not accept the ENTER).

Any way, afterwards (if I get to solve the AllowEdit issue), I will have to 

save the changes made to the cell values in the data editor, but from the 

Documentation I can see it's not possible, because it says:

By default, an end user is able to change data using the Data Editor; 

however, this only changes values in the chart not a bound database.

So I was wondering why I should matter trying to make it editable if I won't 

be able to commit the changes to the cube/database any way...

I'm thinking about doing a datagrid outside chartFX so I can work through 

this problem... but I'm not quite sure if this is the best way to do it or 

there's a better one...

any ideas?

Thanks

Since that data you see in the Data Editor is converted/calculated from the 

original data you can't modify it. Any modification would be lost after 

re-arranging dimensions as new data is calculated.
