GridModelSelections.GetInvertStateRowCol has confusing name and broken links

[John Freeborg]

Essential Suite 2.0.3.0 release candidate.

The description for this method says "Determines if the specified cell position is found in a range list."

I would suggest that the grid would be more approachable for new customers if the method were named something like:

IsRowColInRangeList()
IsCellSelected()
IsCellInRangeList()

or something. "InvertState" means nothing. I can search the entire class reference for "InvertState" and no hits come up. Consequently it took me awhile to find this method.

Also - the links for these are broken in the suite class reference help file:

GridModelSelections.SetModelInt()
GridControl.IntDrawInvertCell()

Below is the source with included help on that method. It relies on the GridRangeInfoList.AnyRangeContains which is seems to be a ''reasonably'' named method which is probably a better method to be aware of than GetInvertStateRowCol. The reason that this method is named GetInvertStateRowCol is that selections can be indicated by just inverting the selected range. If you turn off the AlphaBlend flag in AllowSelections, you can see this behavior. Historically, this is how selections were done. But with alphablending available with GDI+, the selections look better using blending. So, GetInvertStateRowCol makes more sense if you use inverting to mark selections.

Thank you for reporting the broken links. We will get them fix.
