How can I Bulk Edit with GanttControl.GanttGrid?

[Ahmed Makhdoom]

(I believe I posted this in the wrong forum originally, so I'm reposting it here)

Specifically, I need to find out how to stop the GanttGrid from deselecting all other nodes/rows when a cell is selected, and instead activate and start editing that cell.

This is the same procedure done for the WPF GridDataControl in this blog post / sample.

I've tried using nearly the same code with GanttGrid.InternalGrid, but the GridSelectionChangingEventArgs args in the SelectionChanging event only ever has a Reason of SelectRange, and there are a couple of other major behavioural differences with the GanttGrid.InternalGrid that prevent it from working as-is with the sample code.

Any help would be much appreciated.

It seems that the node selection is done through a MouseController with the name SelectNodesMouseController.

Is the bulk editing only possible then by overriding this mouse controller somehow? It seems very hackish to do this.

We're currently using 10.3.0.43. Is bulk editing in the Gantt control supported in later versions or planned for a future release?

Hi Ahmed,

Thanks for contacting Syncfusion support.

As of now we do not have support for bulk editing in “Gantt Grid” as like “Grid Data Control”. As per our current architecture it is designed to support only Single cell editing and Bulk editing is not possible. And we do not have plans to implement this feature in upcoming releases also. Please let us know if you need any other assistance.
