sfdatagrid editor selection behavior

[Stoked]

Hello Forum Users,

I'm using the SfDataGrid control in WinForms and I have the editor selection behavior set to "SelectAll", as shown below.

sfdatagrid.EditorSelectionBehavior = Syncfusion.WinForms.DataGrid.Enums.EditorSelectionBehavior.SelectAll;

I'm having an issue whereby, when I double click into the cell to edit, the entire cell contents are selected, as intended, and the cursor resides at the end of the text. See image...

However, when I press F2 to edit the cell, this does not work. The cursor is in the correct position, but the entire contents are not selected, see image below...

Has anyone experienced this before? And if so, how to resolve?

Am I missing another setting somewhere?

Thanks.

Thank you. How does this fix affect F160088 (SfDataGrid currentcellvalidation) that I've recently had fixed in the same assembly, i.e. Syncfusion.SfDataGrid.Winforms.dll? Will this change override that one? Are both fixes included in this latest fix, 160284?

Also, in which release will this fix appear?
