setting the cursor position in a Date cell type on Cell focus

[Roy]

Hi,

I have a grid control that has a column which is a Date (MaskEdit type).  (It has this mask "  /  /    "); 

I want to set the cursor to start always from the right side of the control whenever a user clicks on the cell.

Is there a way to do so ?

(I tried catching the "CurrentCellControlGotFocus" and tried to change the Cursors position or something like that but its not possible.

Also tried changing the "Right to left" property but that doesnt make the cursor jump to the right.

Thanks,

Roy.

Hi Roy,

Thank you for your interest in Syncfusion products.

We regret to let you know that this is the default behavior of the Grid cell. The cursor position will be placed based on the cursor focused in the textbox. For example, if you focus the grid cell by clicking the initial point of grid cell, the focus will be moved to first position while focusing the grid cell. So please ensure that this is the default behavior of grid cell.

Please let me know if you have any concerns.

Regards,

Ok ,

We seemed to have found a way to do that using SendKeys.Send("{home}");

Thank you,

Hi,

using this :

  private void bizBasicGridControl2_CurrentCellActivated_1(object sender, EventArgs e)

        {

            SendKeys.Send("{home}");

        }

solved it for me.

the problem using CurrentCellVontrolGotFocus was that this event fired in loop while the cursur was in the cell.

CurrentCellActivated fired only once when i entered the cell.

Hi Tomer,

Thank you for your interest in Syncfusion Products.

If you want the event to get triggered when the cell is begins to edit mode, you can use CurrentCellStartEditing. And use of QueryCellStyleInfo would get triggered frequently while drawing each cell of the grid. Could you please let us know the exact scenario in which you want the event to get triggered? So, that it would be easy for us to provide a prompt solution.

 

Please let us know if you have any other concerns.

 

Thanks & Regards,
