Regd---Highlight Text

[manohar]

Hi There,

I am using RichTextCell,IntegerCell,DecimalCell and other types of cells of GridDataBoundGrid.In any of these cells,the ability to select(i.e, highlight) text either doesn''t work or is difficult(try to highlight three and a half words).Kindly provide some solution to this.

Cheers,
Manohar.

Hi Manohar,
For RichText CellType, Grid uses WindowsForm''s RichTextBox internally. By default, RichTextBox.AutoWordSelection is set to true. You set that to false. Here is the code that works in the shipping sample - Windows\Grid.Windows\samples\CellTypes\RichTextCells.

GridRichTextBoxCellRenderer renderer = (GridRichTextBoxCellRenderer) this.gridControl1.CellRenderers["RichText"];
GridRichTextEntryPanel panel = renderer.DropDownContainer.Controls[0] as GridRichTextEntryPanel;
panel.RichTextBox.AutoWordSelection = false;

Best regards,
