Right Clicking for a ContextMenu

[robert bergelson]

I have added a context menu to the gridControl. When I run the application and right click on the grid, two things happen :

A) The context pops up, and
B) The underlying cell is selected

How do I change this behavior so that only A) happens ? In other words when I right click over the grid, I want the pop up but not the selection of the underlying cell.

Bob,

Here is a try at this behavior. It catches the CurrentCellDeactivvating, and if it is because of a rightmouse done, it cancels the current deactivating and the next deactivating. You have to cancel 2 because the cell tries to move when you do the mouseup as well.

Regards,

Clay

//class member...
bool skipDeactivate = false;
private void gridControl1_CurrentCellDeactivating(object sender, System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs e)
{
	if(Control.MouseButtons == MouseButtons.Right || skipDeactivate)
	{
		skipDeactivate = ! skipDeactivate;
		e.Cancel = true;
	}
}

Clay,
Thanks for the help, this works fine. I still see one minor behavior nit, on the first right mouse down, the underlying cell is still selected. Any way around this ?

Try moving that code from the CurrentCellDeactivating to the CurrentCellActivating event.

bool skipActivate = false;
private void gridControl1_CurrentCellActivating(object sender, Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridCurrentCellActivatingEventArgs e)
{
	if(Control.MouseButtons == MouseButtons.Right || skipActivate)
	{
		skipActivate = ! skipActivate;
		e.Cancel = true;
	}
}
