Question

I’m using jqGrid with subgrids and I’m looking for a way to call a method after I collapse a subgrid. Right now I have:

subGridRowColapsed: function (subgrid_id, row_id) {
    position_slider();
}

My position_slider() method uses the grid height to reposition a slider element. The problem is that this is being called before the subgrid is actually collapsed, so the height of the grid has not yet been updated. How can I call this method after the subgrid is collapsed? I thought about using a short timeout, but that might not be reliable.

Thanks!

I found a solution. In the subGridRowColapsed, I trigger a reload of the grid and then in my gridComplete I call the function I wanted to be called after the subgrid was collapsed:

...
gridComplete: function () {
    position_slider();
},
...
subGridRowColapsed: function (subgrid_id, row_id) {
    $('#grid').trigger("reloadGrid");
}
...

Hopefully this helps anyone looking to do something similar.
