Combining rows

[Ben Green]

Having gone through the documentation, I don't think what I want is possible (only in cell selection not row selection), but thought I would ask just in case.

I am trying to achieve something like the following :

• Manufacturer is grouped togeather
• selection is by row, but by the combined grouping of the manufacturer. For example, there are only two selectable rows in the right hand image 'Dell' and 'HP'.

Hi Ben Green,

Thank you for your query.

We have reviewed your query. Based on the provided information we understand that your requirement involves merging cells based on their content, and upon selecting a merged row, you would like all the rows to the right of the merged range to be selected as well. In the DataGrid Control, it is possible to merge cells based on their content using the QueryCoveredRange event.

However, please note that selecting rows while cells are merged is currently a limitation of the control. Although you can suppress the exception that occurs during row selection using the ExternalExceptionThrown event, further customization in this area is not supported. This behavior is documented as a known limitation in the User Guide. For more technical details, please refer to the section on MergeCell limitations.

We appreciate your understanding and are here to assist you with any further questions.
