+# Configuration Resolution: Scope-First vs. Type-First
+
+## The Two Strategies
+
+Given `Foo extends Entity` with configurations at four points in the matrix:
+
+| | Instance | Global |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Foo** | I·Foo | G·Foo |
+| **Entity** | I·Entity | G·Entity |
+
+**Scope-first** exhausts all instance settings before looking at global ones:
+```
+I·Foo → I·Entity → G·Foo → G·Entity → Default
+```
+
+**Type-first** exhausts all Foo-specific settings before looking at Entity:
+```
+I·Foo → G·Foo → I·Entity → G·Entity → Default
+```
+
+Both agree on `I·Foo` being first and `G·Entity` being last. The dispute is the middle two.
+
+---
+
+## Where Scope-First Makes Sense
+
+**Setting: `textAlign` or `nullRepresentation`**
+
+A developer creates a reporting grid and writes:
+```java
+easyGrid.configuration.forType(Entity.class).setTextAlign(RIGHT);
+```
+The intent is *"every Entity-like column in this grid should be right-aligned."* Since `Foo IS-AN Entity`, Foo columns should also be right-aligned. Instance context wins: the developer explicitly opted every Entity column into this layout decision, and Foo, being substitutable for Entity, should inherit it.
+
+If type-first were applied, `G·Foo` would sit between `I·Foo` and `I·Entity`. An unrelated global renderer for Foo would silently block the instance-level alignment — which is the opposite of what the developer intended.
+
+---
+
+## Where Type-First Makes Sense
+
+**Setting: `rendererFactory`**
+
+Globally, `Foo` has a specialized renderer registered:
+```java
+GlobalEasyGridConfiguration.forType(Foo.class)
+    .setRendererFactory(FooRenderers.of(...));
+```
+Independently, an instance configures Entity columns with a generic formatter:
+```java
+easyGrid.configuration.forType(Entity.class).setFormatter(e -> e.getId().toString());
+```
+
+Under scope-first, `I·Entity` wins over `G·Foo`. The Foo-specific renderer — which encodes *what a Foo looks like*, arguably a type invariant — gets silently replaced by a generic Entity formatter that the developer may not have intended to apply to Foo.
+
+Type-first preserves the type contract: `G·Foo` sits above `I·Entity`, so Foo's rendering semantics are honoured even across scope boundaries.
+
+---
+
+## Liskov Substitution Principle
+
+LSP says: a `Foo` must be usable wherever an `Entity` is expected, without callers needing to know the difference.
+
+Applied to configuration, it has two implications that pull in opposite directions:
+
+**LSP supports scope-first for behavioural settings.** If you configure `Entity` at instance level — null representation, alignment, a locale-specific formatter — you are specifying how *this grid* handles all Entity values. A `Foo` substituting for `Entity` should satisfy those same observable postconditions. Refusing to inherit `I·Entity` because Foo has a `G·Foo` entry would mean the grid behaves differently for `Foo` vs `Entity` in ways the calling code did not anticipate.
+
+**LSP supports type-first for type-defining settings.** LSP also requires that subtypes honour their own invariants. If `Foo` has a type-level rendering contract — *this is how a Foo is displayed* — then substituting a generic `Entity` renderer for it violates the Foo invariant. The renderer is not just a postcondition on the grid; it is a property of `Foo` itself.
+
+The tension resolves in favour of **scope-first for all properties**. The type-first argument rests on the assumption that `I·Entity` displaces `G·Foo` unintentionally — but instance configuration is always deliberate. A developer who writes `forType(Entity.class).setFormatter(...)` knows `Foo IS-AN Entity`; if they wanted Foo to keep its global renderer they would have set `I·Foo` separately. The argument collapses entirely at broad overrides such as `forType(Object.class).setFormatter(...)`, where the developer has unambiguously stated that everything in this grid uses this formatter and global type-specific registrations cannot claim precedence. **Global registrations are defaults. Instance registrations are decisions. Decisions outrank defaults regardless of type specificity.**
+
+---
+
+## Current Implementation
+
+The implementation uses **scope-first** for all properties. For a `Foo extends Entity` column the effective chain is:
+
+```
+per-column → I·Foo → I·Entity → I·Object → G·Foo → G·Entity → G·Object → Default
+```
+
+This is built in two pieces:
+
+**Instance chain** — `EasyGridConfigurationClassMap.getOrCreate(Foo)` walks the Java class hierarchy within the same map, producing a `ColumnConfigurationImpl` chain:
+
+```
+I·Foo(impl) → I·Entity(impl) → I·Object(impl)
+```
+
+**Global chain** — `GlobalEasyGridConfiguration.resolve(Foo)` similarly produces:
+
+```
+G·Foo(impl) → G·Entity(impl) → G·Object(impl)
+```
+
+**Bridge** — `InstanceEasyGridConfiguration.forType(Foo)` wraps both into a `ColumnConfigurationLink`:
+
+```
+ColumnConfigurationLink(primary = I·Foo chain, fallback = G·Foo chain)
+```
+
+`ColumnConfigurationLink.get()` consults the primary chain first and only falls back to the global chain when the primary returns `null` for a given property.
+
+**Per-column** — `InstanceEasyGridConfiguration.resolve(Foo)` wraps the link in a fresh `ColumnConfigurationImpl` whose fields are overridden by column-level setters (`setNullRepresentation`, `setFormatter`, `setRendererFactory`).
+
+**Default** — when the entire chain returns `null` for `getRendererFactory()`, `EasyColumn.createRenderer` applies a `ColumnConfigurationTextRenderer` with null-representation support as the last resort.

+# Feature: Row Actions
+
+Row actions are buttons or menu items displayed in a dedicated actions column, created and managed by `EasyGrid` on the wrapped grid.
+
+## API
+
+### `EasyGrid<T>` methods
+
+```java
+// Add an action button (label + icon)
+EasyRowAction<T> addRowAction(String label, VaadinIcon icon, SerializableConsumer<T> handler);
+
+// Add an action button with a theme variant
+EasyRowAction<T> addRowAction(String label, VaadinIcon icon, ButtonVariant variant, SerializableConsumer<T> handler);
+
+// Render all actions as a context menu (overflow menu) instead of inline buttons
+void setRowActionsAsMenu(boolean asMenu);
+
+// Access the underlying Grid.Column for header, width, freezing, etc.
+Grid.Column<T> getActionsColumn();
+```
+
+### `EasyRowAction<T>`
+
+```java
+public class EasyRowAction<T> {
+    // Conditional visibility
+    EasyRowAction<T> withVisibleWhen(SerializablePredicate<T> predicate);
+
+    // Conditional enablement
+    EasyRowAction<T> withEnabledWhen(SerializablePredicate<T> predicate);
+
+    // Tooltip
+    EasyRowAction<T> withTooltip(String tooltip);
+    EasyRowAction<T> withTooltip(SerializableFunction<T, String> tooltipProvider);
+
+    // Confirmation dialog before executing the action
+    EasyRowAction<T> withConfirmation(String message);
+    EasyRowAction<T> withConfirmation(String title, String message);
+}
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+```java
+// Inline action buttons
+easyGrid.addRowAction("Edit", VaadinIcon.EDIT, person -> {
+    editPerson(person);
+});
+
+easyGrid.addRowAction("Delete", VaadinIcon.TRASH, ButtonVariant.LUMO_ERROR, person -> {
+    personService.delete(person);
+    easyGrid.getDataProvider().refreshAll();
+}).withConfirmation("Are you sure you want to delete this person?");
+
+// Actions as a context menu (overflow menu) instead of inline buttons
+easyGrid.setRowActionsAsMenu(true);
+
+// Conditional visibility
+easyGrid.addRowAction("Activate", VaadinIcon.CHECK, person -> {
+    personService.activate(person);
+}).withVisibleWhen(person -> !person.isActive());
+
+easyGrid.addRowAction("Deactivate", VaadinIcon.CLOSE, person -> {
+    personService.deactivate(person);
+}).withVisibleWhen(person -> person.isActive());
+
+// Configure the actions column via the underlying Grid.Column
+easyGrid.getActionsColumn()
+    .setHeader("Actions")
+    .setWidth("150px")
+    .setFrozenToEnd(true);
+```
