De-format the edited string back into a primitive value.

The localizer's parse method will be called on the text box contents.

Parameters:

stopEditing(feedbackopt) → {boolean}

Stops editing.

Before saving, validates the edited value in two phases as follows:

  1. Call validateEditorValue. (Calls the localizer's invalid() function, if available.)
  2. Catch any errors thrown by the getEditorValue method.

If the edited value passes both phases of the validation: Saves the edited value by calling the saveEditorValue method.

On validation failure:

  1. If feedback was omitted, cancels editing, discarding the edited value.
  2. If feedback was provided, gives the user some feedback (see feedback, below).
Parameters:
Name Type Attributes Description
feedback number <optional>

What to do on validation failure. One of:

  • undefined - Do not show the error effect or the end effect. Just discard the value and close the editor (as if ESC had been typed).
  • 0 - Just shows the error effect (see the errorEffect property).
  • 1 - Shows the error feedback effect followed by the detailed explanation.
  • 2 or more:
    1. Shows the error feedback effect
    2. On every feedback tries, shows the detailed explanation.
  • If undefined (omitted), simply cancels editing without saving edited value.
  • If 0, shows the error feedback effect (see the errorEffect property).
  • If > 0, shows the error feedback effect and calls the errorEffectEnd method) every feedback call(s) to stopEditing.
Returns:

Truthy means successful stop. Falsy means syntax error prevented stop. Note that editing is canceled when no feedback requested and successful stop includes (successful) cancel.
