Using tab when using GridCellActivateAction.SelectAll

[Thierry Vessereau]

Hi all,

I have set the value grd.ActivateCurrentCellBehavior = GridCellActivateAction.SelectAll
in order to have the cell automatically selected when entering into it.

It works fine when using the mouse or the arrow keys. But if I use the tab key, the current value is automatically replaced by a tab (just as if I pressed the tab key once again inside the cell). I need the behavior "select all", and for the moment I forbid the use of the tab key. I am afraid it is a bug in the grid but does anyone have an idea of the way to resolve this issue?

Thanks
Thierry

This is a bug in the 3.0.1.0 code base. It has been corrected here, and this fix will be part of the next public release which is in the works, but I do not know the day it will actually drop.

If you submit a DirectTrac support incident, we can provide you with a private build that has this corrected.

A simple work around might be to set

this.grid.TableStyle.CellType = "OriginalTextBox";
