Add new row after adding row

[Javier Gonzalez de Aragon]

Hello, I need the gridview to automatically go to the "new row" row and the first visible column (the first column is hidden) of that row after adding a row. How can I achieve this? I've tried the following but for some reason the selected column is the second, not the first one (NoMes).

Private Sub gvMeses_UserAddedRow(sender As Object, e As Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewRowEventArgs) Handles gvMeses.UserAddedRow

    gvMeses.MasterView.TableAddNewRow.IsCurrent = True
    gvMeses.Columns("NoMes").IsCurrent = True

End Sub

Thanks

Hello Javier,

Thank you for writing.

This code seems to be working just fine on my end. Can you please make sure that column "NoMes" is indeed the first on in your grid, or just use the following code instead:

Private Sub gvMeses_UserAddedRow(sender As Object, e As Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewRowEventArgs) Handles gvMeses.UserAddedRow

    gvMeses.MasterView.TableAddNewRow.IsCurrent = True
    gvMeses.Columns(0).IsCurrent = True

End Sub

I hope this helps.

Same result, but after playing around a little bit, here's what I found. I had setup my grid to use the Enter key to move to the next cell instead of the next row. This is the ideal behavior for my grid. Using this configuration, if the Enter key is used to navigate the grid, when a row is added, instead of selecting the new row, the first row is selected. If the Tab key is used to navigate the grid, when a row is added, the new row is indeed selected, but the second column is selected instead of the first column. If the grid is setup to use the Enter key to move to the next row, then after a row is added the new row is selected and also the first column, but this is the only scenario that it works, and as you can imagine, it is far from ideal.

Hello Javier,

The NewRowEnterKeyMode was the reason for the different behavior on both ends. To achieve the desired navigation you will have to create a descendant of GridNewRowBehavior and override the Enter and Tab key behavior. Here is a sample implementation:

class MyNewRowBehavior : GridNewRowBehavior
{
    protected override bool ProcessEnterKey(KeyEventArgs keys)
    {
        bool isAtLastColumn = this.Navigator.IsLastColumn(this.GridControl.CurrentColumn);

        bool result = base.ProcessEnterKey(keys);

        bool isAtFirstColumn = this.Navigator.IsFirstColumn(this.GridControl.CurrentColumn);

        if (isAtLastColumn && isAtFirstColumn)
        {
            this.GridControl.MasterView.TableAddNewRow.IsCurrent = true;
            this.GridControl.Columns[0].IsCurrent = true;
        }

        return result;
    }

    protected override bool ProcessTabKey(KeyEventArgs keys)
    {
        bool isAtLastColumn = this.Navigator.IsLastColumn(this.GridControl.CurrentColumn);

        bool result = base.ProcessTabKey(keys);

        bool isAtFirstColumn = this.Navigator.IsFirstColumn(this.GridControl.CurrentColumn);

        if (isAtLastColumn && isAtFirstColumn)
        {
            this.GridControl.MasterView.TableAddNewRow.IsCurrent = true;
            this.GridControl.Columns[0].IsCurrent = true;
        }

        return result;
    }
}

And here is how to put this class in action:

((BaseGridBehavior)radGridView1.GridBehavior).UnregisterBehavior(typeof(GridViewNewRowInfo));
((BaseGridBehavior)radGridView1.GridBehavior).RegisterBehavior(typeof(GridViewNewRowInfo),new MyNewRowBehavior() );

I hope this helps.
