sfDataGrid and GridComboBoxColumn - keyboard handling
Hi.
I'm using sfDataGrid and GridComboBoxColumn controls. There are 2 problems with combo box controls. Sample code:
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
sfDataGrid1.AutoGenerateColumns = false;
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
dt.Columns.Add("colText", typeof(string));
dt.Columns.Add("colCombo", typeof(string));
foreach (string s in dataText)
{
System.Data.DataRow row = dt.NewRow();
row[0] = s;
row[1] = "Aaaaa";
dt.Rows.Add(row);
}
sfDataGrid1.DataSource = dt;
DataTable combodt = new DataTable();
combodt.Columns.Add("colCombo", typeof(string));
foreach (string s in comboList)
{
System.Data.DataRow row = combodt.NewRow();
row[0] = s;
combodt.Rows.Add(row);
}
Syncfusion.WinForms.DataGrid.GridTextColumn col1 = new Syncfusion.WinForms.DataGrid.GridTextColumn();
col1.MappingName = "colText";
sfDataGrid1.Columns.Add(col1);
Syncfusion.WinForms.DataGrid.GridComboBoxColumn col2 = new Syncfusion.WinForms.DataGrid.GridComboBoxColumn();
col2.MappingName = "colCombo";
col2.DataSource = combodt;
col2.DisplayMember = "colCombo";
col2.ValueMember = "colCombo";
col2.StaysOpenOnEdit = true;
col2.DropDownStyle = Syncfusion.WinForms.ListView.Enums.DropDownStyle.DropDownList;
sfDataGrid1.Columns.Add(col2);
sfDataGrid1.Focus();
sfDataGrid1.MoveToCurrentCell(new Syncfusion.WinForms.GridCommon.ScrollAxis.RowColumnIndex(1, 0));
}
private string[] dataText = { "test1", "test2", "test3" };
private string[] comboList = { "Aaaaa", "Baaab", "Babbb", "Bbbbe", "Ttttt", "Uuuuu", "Vvvvv", "Wwwww", "Xxxxx", "Yyyyy", "Zzzzz" };
}
Problem 1:
When user is using keyboard to select last item from dropdown list (he's pressing "z" key), the dropdown is selecting this item, but scroll bar is not moving to this item (video 1).
Problem 2:
Let's change col2.DropDownStyle to Syncfusion.WinForms.ListView.Enums.DropDownStyle.DropDown and add after that these lines to the code:
col2.AutoCompleteMode = AutoCompleteMode.SuggestAppend;
col2.AutoSuggestMode = Syncfusion.WinForms.ListView.Enums.AutoCompleteSuggestMode.StartsWith;
When user is using keyboard to select "Bbbbe" item (he's pressing "bbb"), the output in dropdown is "Ab" (video 2).

my records are instances of a class with many properties, only some of which I display in the grid. Is it possible for me query the value of a non-displayed property in a record and use this data to initiate certain cell modifications?
