Suppress enter key with griddatacontrol?

[Sören Höglund]

Hi,

I want to suppress the default enter key behavior. From what I can tell, the regular gridcontrol has a WantEnterKey property that can be set to false, but how can I accomplish the same thing with a GridDataControl?

HI Sören,

Thanks for using Syncfusion products.

We have analyzed your query and In GridDataControl don’t have the WantEnterKey property but if you want to suppress the enter key then you can achieve your requirement by using PreviewKeyDown event as below the code snippet.

Code snippet[C#]:

 

this.SyncGrid.PreviewKeyDown += new KeyEventHandler(SyncGrid_PreviewKeyDown);

 

 

void SyncGrid_PreviewKeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)

        {

            if (Key.Enter == e.Key)

            {

                e.Handled = true;

            }

        }

 

Please let us know if you have any queries.

 

Regards,

My specific use case was a bit more complex: I have a textbox in a detail view that accepts new lines, so I can't just mark the event as handled.

Manually adding newlines to the control using the preview key event is how I ended up handling it, and that works, but it's not exactly a neat solution.

Hi Sören,

 

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

 

We have analyzed your query and you can achieve your requirement by using below the code snippet for multiline option.
