I made some changes in my interface through the Edit List function but when I save changes and update the interface, this changes do not apply to the read-only grid. I tried to eliminate this read-only grid and add it again and this way the changes were applied.
Example of the changes and the interface are the following:
The changes to apply in the interface are the following:
And the interface remains unchanged (notice the "€" sign is not applied):
Does anyone know any other (less sophisticated and destructive) way to update the read-only grid and directly apply new changes?
Thanks!

To me, it is pretty much unclear what you did. Could you explain your first sentence in more detail?
I just added the "a!currency" expression to add the "€" sing following the values in the "Importe" column.
a!gridColumn( label: "Importe", sortField: 'recordType!{495578a9-1b23-4253-8145-6418faabe727}CPF Lineas Pedido.fields.{beb59a89-a332-46d3-b718-a8285f58f942}Importe', value: a!currency( isoCode: "EUR", indicatorAlignment: "END", value: if( isnull( fv!row['recordType!{495578a9-1b23-4253-8145-6418faabe727}CPF Lineas Pedido.fields.{beb59a89-a332-46d3-b718-a8285f58f942}Importe'] ), fv!row['recordType!{495578a9-1b23-4253-8145-6418faabe727}CPF Lineas Pedido.fields.{beb59a89-a332-46d3-b718-a8285f58f942}Importe'], fixed( fv!row['recordType!{495578a9-1b23-4253-8145-6418faabe727}CPF Lineas Pedido.fields.{beb59a89-a332-46d3-b718-a8285f58f942}Importe'], 2 ) ) ), align: "END" )
That was the only change I made.
Do you have a specific reason to use fixed()? It turns that decimal value into a string. Depending on your locale, it uses a comma as the separator which the currency() function then will have a hard time to cast back into a decimal.
Could that be the problem?
I think it is more a synchronization issue. The fixed() expression is working correctly because it is showing the "€" sign in the edit list view. However, when you switch to read-only grid in the interface it doesn't update.
Also, when I delete the read-only grid completely and create it again from scratch, then it does show the new changes. This is why I think it is a synchronization problem. I am looking for a way to update the read-only grid without having to delete it completely.
Can you explain what "switch to read-only grid in the interface" means an what update you expect?
Then, what is "when I delete the read-only grid completely and create it again from scratch, then it does show the new changes" and which changes do you see?
Sorry for the questions, but I really have a hard time understanding what is going on. And I want to avoid giving tips based in too many assumptions.
My steps were the following:
1) I Opened edit record list to include my changes in a column:
2) I included the following code to show the "€" sign next to the values in the column "importe".
3) The changes are applied correctly and now I can view my changes:
4) The problem is now, when I open the interface corresponding to that record, my changes are not shown and the view is the following:
Notice the column "importe" is not showing the same in the edit record list view and the read-only grid in the interface.
Got it. The issue here is that when you put a read only grid onto an interface, it copies the columns configuration from the record list config. But it does not update that later on.
Remove whole read only grid and add it again in your interface to see changes made. There is a problem, when you make update in record list it wont update itself(Read Only Grid).
