Description
Using a Grid Inline editing on an 'auto commit' list store, a combo box does not appear to save a newly selected value when an adjacent cell on the same row is clicked. Pressing 'Tab' instead has different behaviour and the newly selected value is successfully saved.

Steps to reproduce the problem

1. On the supplied widget code
2. Click on an Integer cell to show a combo box
3. Select an item in the combo box
4. Use the mouse to click on the next cell on the same row
5. The newly selected value is lost and the old value remains
6. Repeat the steps above but press 'Tab' instead of clicking and it works fine

Expected result Newly selected value should be saved
Actual result Old value remains
Test case 180 line stand-alone widget is available online.

Unrelated to your report, but the example you linked to,

http://www.sencha.com/examples-dev/#ExamplePlace:inlineeditablegrid

is running 3.0.0 RC2. A running sample of 3.0.1 is available at

http://www.sencha.com/examples/#ExamplePlace:inlineeditablegrid

I'm able to reproduce this (Chrome only, as specified), and have filed this internally. We'll update this post when we have a workaround or a fix to report.

I have this problem too, and clicking tab doesn't seem to solve it. Specifically, this new value that the user entered doesn't seem to be getting added to the ComboBox's ListStore, and because of that it's not sticking and the CombBox reverts to it's previous value.

This problem went away for me once I rewrote the ComboxCell.ComboPropertyEditor as I detailed here:

I did have this problem. I thought I didn't because I wasn't clicking in the next comboBox, which is key to reproducing this bug. Clicking in the next comboBox will cancel the edit in the previous comboBox, which is a bug, IMO, in com.sencha.gxt.widget.core.client.grid.editing.GridInlineEditing#cancelEditing line 147. That line should be completeEditing() instead.

Here's a workaround:

        gridEditor.addBeforeStartEditHandler(new BeforeStartEditEvent.BeforeStartEditHandler<T>() {
            @Override
            public void onBeforeStartEdit(BeforeStartEditEvent<T> event) {
                gridEditor.completeEditing(); // Set the value on the last column we were editing, otherwise it is thrown away.
            }
        });
