Pasting text seems to bypass some events

[TJ]

Hi.

I''m having trouble detecting that the user has changed a GDBG cell''s text, if
they do it by pasting (as plain text). I''m using 2.0.5.1, and pasting via
Shift+Ins, as using Ctrl+V seems to not paste at all.

1) Grid_RowEditing doesn''t fire, but I can work around that by explicitly calling
the handler from my Model_PasteCellText handler.

2) CurrentCellValidating never fires. When I try to call THAT explicitly, my handler
only sees the old text, not the freshly-pasted text. For this, I haven''t found a
workaround.

What do you suggest?

Thanks,
Tom

To validate pasting cell by cell in a GridDataBoundGrid, you can use the grid.Model.PasteCellText event.

Ah wait, I figured out a workaround...

In my PasteCellText handler, I just set
e.Style.Text = e.Text;
to accept the pasted text as the new cell contents, then proceed with
the two workarounds I described above.

This time, my explicitly-called Grid_CurrentCellValidating gets the new
text as intended.

Thanks,
Tom
