Description

Issue migrated from Redmine: https://redmine.postgresql.org/issues/3997
Originally created by Yuri Cherio at 2019-02-14 18:41:08 UTC.

To reproduce:

  • highlight a view and choose "View/Edit Data"
  • edit any field and click "OK"

The new value doesn't appear in the grid.

In my mind it should simply allow to edit view values and hit save and then let the server to decide whether the update on the view can go through or not

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue through the Edit Grid's “View/Edit Data” entry point with a PostgreSQL view. Trace the edit and save flow to see why the changed value is not shown in the grid. Done means edits are submitted and the resulting value is displayed, while the server determines whether the view update is permitted.
