Thanks so much for developing this! I've implemented it for a row-selection column in an attempt to make my grid behave similarly to Excel. Screenshot below:
Looks good. I've updated the version due to a bug when dynamically adding and removing locked columns. The bug probably won't affect mattpainter's excel like grid.
Sorry - LockableGridManager was not meant to be included. Imagine it as a some thoughts on managing a lockable grid. Grid Helper basically refreshes a grid by throwing away the store and creating a new one to prevent a whole lot of events from firing - a bit drastic really - probably could suppress events somehow.
Is there version of locking/freezing grid columns for GXT 3 ?
There isn't at the moment - we haven't upgraded to GXT3 yet (and also was hoping that Sencha would see fit to create a proper version better than my hack).
