Annoying page scroll on grid item select

[Santiago]

Hi, I'm having an annoying problem. When I select an item in the grid, the page automatically scrolls so the selected item is centered on the screen.
This behaviour is very annoying when I try to double-click an item 'cos the page scrolls on my first click and I end up doing my second click
somewhere else on the page.

Is there a way to disable this auto-scroll behavior?

Regards,
Santiago.

Hi Santiago,

This Grid's behavior is by design and for the time being the scrolling cannot be disabled. We will consider, however, implementing a solution for one of the next releases of the control.

I hope this behavior is not a showstopper for you.

Hi, is there a way to automatically select the first item in the file explorer grid at the initial load? i need to absorb this behavior and center the file explorer at the first load.

Thanks in advance,
Diego.

Hi Diego,

Instead of exploiting a browser issue, I would recommend you to use the correct JavaScript approach to center an item in the viewport. To do so you can handle the RadFileExplorer's OnClientLoad event and call scrollIntoView() JavaScript method, e.g.:

<script type="text/javascript">
    function OnClientLoad(explorer, args)
    {
        explorer.get_element().scrollIntoView(true);
    }
</script>

It works like a charm.

Thanks,
