rise up a contextmenustip for the user to click a button and get the current row index from the right click

Hello Vaggelis Charalabakis,

Thank you for writing.

You can replace the default context menu with a custom one in ContextMenuOpenning event. In the menu item Click event handler, you can get the index of the grid's current row, which will be the index of right-clicked row. Please consider the following code:

void radGridView1_ContextMenuOpening(object sender, Telerik.WinControls.UI.ContextMenuOpeningEventArgs e)
{
    if (this.radGridView1.CurrentRow is GridViewDataRowInfo)
    {
        RadDropDownMenu menu = new RadDropDownMenu();
        RadMenuItem menuItem = new RadMenuItem("Get row index");
        menuItem.Click += new EventHandler(menuItem_Click);
        menu.Items.Add(menuItem);
        e.ContextMenu = menu;
    }
}
void menuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    int index = this.radGridView1.Rows.IndexOf(this.radGridView1.CurrentRow as GridViewDataRowInfo);
    MessageBox.Show(String.Format("Current row index is: {0}", index));
}

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions.

How can I get the index of the row that the mouse just moved over, I hooked to the event

 

RowMouseMove it gives me the row but of type GridDataRowElement

 

 

 

I can get the index of a row of type GridViewDataRowInfo using this.myGrid.Rows.IndexOf(myRow), how can the get the index of the row of type GridDataRowElement or GridRowElement  ???

Thank you

Hi Rabeeh ,

Thank you for the question.

You can get the row info from the particular row element through the RowInfo property:
 

GridDataRowElement row = e.RowElement;
int rowIndex = this.radGridView1.Rows.IndexOf(row.RowInfo);

Hope this is helpful. Let me know if you have any additional questions.

All the best,
