I’m trying to use the new 7.7 “power table” and configure its cells to be editable “in-place”.

My “configureEditor” extension function looks like:

```auto
	from javax.swing import DefaultCellEditor
	from javax.swing import JTextField
	
	field = JTextField()
	editor = DefaultCellEditor(field)
	opts = {}
	opts['editor'] = editor
	return opts
```

but when I click (right-click, double-click) on the cell nothing happens. What else do I need to do?  
Thanks in advance.

It helps if you mark the cells as being editable in the Table Customizer. All is well. Works like a charm.
