Bug with spineditor in radGridView

[Shirya]

Hello,
I added a spinEditor in my grid view (with the event cellformatting)
The problem is that when i click on rows, all my spinEditors have a blue backcolor.
How can i arrange that?

Also, there is no dock property on a radsSpinEditorElement, how can i make my control take the all cell?

• Thank you

See the attached file

Here is how i add my control:

 If TypeOf (e.CellElement.ColumnInfo) Is GridViewDataColumn Then
           
                    If Not (e.CellElement.Children.Count > 0) Then
                        Dim myNumericUpDown As New RadSpinElement                   
                        e.CellElement.Children.Add(myNumericUpDown)

                    End If

 End If

Hello,

Adding a control to a cell shouldn't be done via the CellFormatting event. You can either specify a GridViewDecimalColumn that will give you a spin editor for editing the cell, or if you need multiple controls in a cell, then you can follow this KB Article which will guide you through creating a custom cell.

Hope that helps

Hello again,
I would like to know if it is possible to always see the spinEditor even if we're not editing the cell?
Also, is there a way to put the spineditor dock = fill?
thank you

Hello,

the editor element is used on when the cell is in edit mode and therefore you cannot see the RadSpinEditor (as it is created as required) until editing a cell.

I'm not sure what you mean by docking the RadSpinEditor as the editor will fill the cell width automatically.
Please let me know if you need further information

Hi Richard,
The only way I can make my spinEditor always visible in my grid is by adding it programmatically to my cellformatting event?
So how do i get rid of the blue backColor bug?


docking the RadSpinEditor :
I would like the editor to fill the width and the heigth of the cell. Right now, it only nfill the width



Do you have any idea han can i do all that?
Thank you

Hello,

One should never add a control using the CellFormatting event. This is designed to be fired with a very high frequency and is designed for formatting the cell's colour, font etc..

You can use a custom editor to modify the spin editor (see this help topic)
The editor, and editor element don't have a dock property. They will however resize width to the current width of the cell.

Hope this helps
Richard
