  Hi Bob,

  If we take this page as an example, do you mean that if you click the pencil for one of the rows, you want to hide the bin icon for deletion while the row is being edited?

  There isn't a built in way to do that at the moment, however, what you could do is add a class to the row being edited and then use display: none for a selector that would pick up the bin icon. That class would need to be removed from the row on submitComplete.

  Hi Allan
  Thanks for answering.
  do you mean that if you click the pencil for one of the rows, you want to hide the bin icon for deletion while the row is being edited?
  Yes, because in this sample https://editor.datatables.net/examples/inline-editing/fullRow.html, the remove button can be clicked in place of submit,

  In inline mode, we can set some opts, like onBlur, ... and use a fct with editor as single parameter.
  submitComplete (or closed) do not directly see removebutton span for the edited row in editor event managment...
  So how to addClass to just part of a cell (like span.remove only) in table event onclick button and removeClass on editor event ?

  On the example page pop open the console and run:

  var table = $('#example').DataTable();
  var editor = table.editor();
  
  editor
      .on('initEdit', function () {
          table.rows(editor.ids(true)).nodes().to$().addClass('hide-delete');
      })
      .on('submitComplete', function () {
          table.rows(editor.ids(true)).nodes().to$().removeClass('hide-delete');
      });
  

  You'll be able to see that when a row is edited it has the class hide-delete added. Then in CSS you could use:

  tr.hide-delete span.remove {
    display: none;
  }
  

  I actually think it is okay to have the delete icon still shown while in edit mode. I think triggering an edit and then deciding that actually you want to delete the row is a valid thing to do, but I totally understand that you might want to present the UI a little differently.
