Improve editing capabilities of Taipy tables

[FlorianJacta]

Description

I'm looking for a way to enable immediate editing for all editable columns or cells of a table. Instead of clicking the pencil icon for each cell I want to edit, I would like to have a single button that makes all cells in the table ready for editing.

This was asked by a user.

Requested Features

1. Single Button for Editing All Cells:

   • A feature to enable editing mode for all editable cells in a table with a single click, rather than activating each cell individually.

2. Row-Wise Editing and Accept Button:

   • Ability to edit multiple cells in a row simultaneously and then click an "accept" button to update an item in CosmosDB for the entire row, instead of confirming each cell's edit independently.

3. Master Accept Button for All Changes:

   • A master "accept" button that commits all changes made across the entire table, updating the corresponding CosmosDB items for each modified row.

Current Limitation

These capabilities are not available in the existing Table element.

Environment

Taipy: develop/4.0

Suggested Solution

Consider adding these options to Taipy.
