maintaining drop down view

[Administrator]

Hi,

I''ve searched samples and the kb, but cannot find the answer to this: If I have a child grid open in my app and I switch to a different app when I return to the grid app the child grid has closed. Is there anyway to keep it open while I go to different windows/programs?

Thanks!

There is no property settings to handle this requirement. In fact, a lot of work goes into making DropDown cells close when the grid loses focus.

If you want a modal grid that stays open, then you could just open another form using form.Show holding a Docked-Fill grid instead of using a dropdown grid.
