Row Selections & context menu

Hi folks, I've got some tiny little problems... Due to postings in this forum I was able to fix some of that, but some probs still remain. The most urgently goes like this: I've got an databound Grid, completely formatted, only complete rows can be selected, multiple selection is possible. We've got a ToolBar-Control from another vendor which we use in all our apps; I've create some contextmenu and bound it to the grid. It works fine. When I select more than one row and rightclick the grid to bring up the contextmenu, allrows but the one I've clicked on are deselected. Can you give me a hint how to keep the whole selection? Thanks in advance, Jens Schlegel@orgatex.net

Try handling the grid.Model.SelectionsChanging event and cancel it if the right button is down.

//hook the handler
this.gridDataBoundGrid1.Model.SelectionChanging += new GridSelectionChangingEventHandler(grid_SelectionsChanging);


private void grid_SelectionsChanging(object sender, GridSelectionChangingEventArgs e)
{
	if(Control.MouseButtons == MouseButtons.Right)
		e.Cancel = true;
}

Sorry, that didn't the trick... I use the following code: Private Sub grdMailOverViewSyncFusion_Resize(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles grdMailOverViewSyncFusion.Resize SetGridSizes() End Sub Private Sub grdMailOverViewSyncFusion_CurrentCellActivating(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridCurrentCellActivatingEventArgs) Handles grdMailOverViewSyncFusion.CurrentCellActivating e.ColIndex = 0 End Sub Private Sub grdMailOverViewSyncFusion_CurrentCellMoving(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridCurrentCellMovingEventArgs) Handles grdMailOverViewSyncFusion.CurrentCellMoving Dim Range As Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridRangeInfo Range = Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridRangeInfo.Cells(e.RowIndex, 1, e.RowIndex, 1) DisplayMail(CStr(grdMailOverViewSyncFusion.DataBoundGridModel.GetCellsInfo(Range)(0).Text)) e.ColIndex = 0 End Sub Private Sub InitializeGrid() AddHandler grdMailOverViewSyncFusion.Model.SelectionChanging, AddressOf SelectionChanging AddHandler grdMailOverViewSyncFusion.DataBoundGridModel.QueryCellInfo, AddressOf QueryCellInfo With grdMailOverViewSyncFusion .Refresh() .AllowSelection = Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridSelectionFlags.Row Or Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridSelectionFlags.Shift Or Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridSelectionFlags.Multiple .HScrollBehavior = Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridScrollbarMode.Disabled .ResizeRowsBehavior = Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridResizeCellsBehavior.None .ResizeColsBehavior = Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridResizeCellsBehavior.ResizeSingle .ListBoxSelectionMode = Windows.Forms.SelectionMode.MultiExtended .TableStyle.Borders.Bottom = New Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridBorder(Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridBorderStyle.None) .TableStyle.Borders.Top = New Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridBorder(Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridBorderStyle.None) .TableStyle.Borders.Left = New Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridBorder(Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridBorderStyle.None) .TableStyle.Borders.Right = New Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridBorder(Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridBorderStyle.None) End With End Sub Private Sub QueryCellInfo(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridQueryCellInfoEventArgs) On Error Resume Next If e.RowIndex > 0 AndAlso e.ColIndex > 0 Then If e.RowIndex Mod 2 = 0 Then e.Style.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Silver e.Handled = True End If If e.ColIndex = 3 Then e.Style.CellType = "System.Drawing.Image" If CBool(e.Style.CellValue) = True Then e.Style.Font.Bold = True e.Style.ImageList = imlGrid e.Style.ImageIndex = 1 Else e.Style.Font.Bold = False e.Style.ImageList = imlGrid e.Style.ImageIndex = 2 End If e.Handled = True End If If e.ColIndex = 2 Then e.Style.CellType = "System.Drawing.Image" If CBool(e.Style.CellValue) = True Then e.Style.ImageList = imlGrid e.Style.ImageIndex = 0 Else e.Style.CellValue = "" End If e.Handled = True End If End If End Sub Private Sub SelectionChanging(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridSelectionChangingEventArgs) If grdMailOverViewSyncFusion.MouseButtons = Windows.Forms.MouseButtons.Right Then e.Cancel = True End If End Sub is there any other way to keep the selection if right mousebutton is clicked?

The Control.MousePosition is a Shared (static in C#) property. So instead of grdMailOverViewSyncFusion.MouseButtons = Windows.Forms.MouseButtons.Right use Control.MouseButtons = Windows.Forms.MouseButtons.Right

Oops. Meant to say Control.MouseButtons is a static property (though Control.MousePosition is also a static property but that comment is off topic).
