GridControl selection question

[Julie Levy]

Hi -
I am using the GridControl and need the following behavior:

User can only select one row at a time using the row header (no dragging the mouse or keyboard arrows, etc. to include other rows)

Selecting a cell also selects a row (on cell click i clear all selections and the select the row), so no selecting of multiple cells across multiple rows dragging the mouse or using the keyboard.

What are the proper controller options and event handling to prevent the mouse down dragging and keyboard selection of multiple rows/cells?

Thanks,
Julie

Hi Julie,

You can try these code:

this.gridControl1.AllowSelection = GridSelectionFlags.Row | GridSelectionFlags.AlphaBlend;
this.gridControl1.SelectionChanging += new GridSelectionChangingEventHandler(gridSelectionChanging);

void gridSelectionChanging(object sender, GridSelectionChangingEventArgs e)
{
e.Cancel = e.Reason != GridSelectionReason.MouseDown;
}

Best regards,
Haneef
