Copy and paste with SelectionMode = Extended

[Edward]

Hello,

There seems to be unexpected behaviour with copy and paste with SelectionMode = Extended.

I have the grid specified below. If I add some rows, then select row 1 and press Ctrl+C, then select row 5 and press Ctrl+V, then row 1 is correctly pasted into row 5. So single-row copying works fine.

However, if I add some rows, then select both rows 1 and 2 and press Ctrl+C, then select row 5 and press Ctrl+V, then rows 1 and 2 are pasted into rows 2 and 3 instead of rows 5 and 6. This happens regardless of which row I select (underneath row 2) before pressing Ctrl+V.

More strangeness:

- If I select rows 2 and 3, press Ctrl+C, then select row 4 and press Ctrl+V, then the two rows are pasted into rows 3 and 4 instead of rows 4 and 5. If I now select just row 6 and press Ctrl+C, and paste into Notepad, rows 2 and 6 are pasted in (not just row 6).

- If I select rows 2,3,4, press Ctrl+C, then select row 7 and press Ctrl+V, then the three rows are pasted into rows 4,5,6 instead of row 7,8,9.

- If I select rows 2 and 5, press Ctrl+C, then select row 8 and press Ctrl+V, then the two rows are pasted into rows 5 and 6 instead of 8 and 9.

I've checked that this is not just a visual bug - the underlying data is affected in the same way.

Many thanks

Ed

Hello,

I'm experiencing quite a lot of unexpected behaviour when copying and pasting with SelectionMode = Extended.

I have the grid specified below. If I add some rows, then select row 1 and press Ctrl+C, then select row 5 and press Ctrl+V, then row 1 is correctly pasted into row 5. So single-row copying works fine.

- If I select rows 2 and 3, press Ctrl+C, then select row 4 and press Ctrl+V, then the two rows are pasted into rows 3 and 4 instead of rows 4 and 5. Furthermore, if I now select just row 6 and press Ctrl+C, and paste into Notepad, rows 2 and 6 are pasted in (whereas it should have copied just row 6).

- If I select rows 2,3,4, press Ctrl+C, then select row 7 and press Ctrl+V, then the three rows are pasted into rows 4,5,6 instead of row 7,8,9.

- If I select rows 2 and 5, press Ctrl+C, then select row 8 and press Ctrl+V, then the two rows are pasted into rows 5 and 6 instead of 8 and 9.

P.S. Here's my grid:

<telerik:RadGridView HorizontalAlignment="Left" Name="gridView" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="490" HeaderRowStyle="{StaticResource gridViewHeaderRowFixedHeightStyle}" CanUserReorderColumns="False" CanUserFreezeColumns="False" CanUserResizeColumns="True" CanUserSelect="True" CanUserSortColumns="False" IsFilteringAllowed="False" ShowGroupPanel="False" AutoGenerateColumns="False" CanUserDeleteRows="True" CanUserInsertRows="True" SelectionMode="Extended" ShowInsertRow="True" RowIndicatorVisibility="Visible" RowHeight="20">

    <telerik:RadGridView.Columns>
...
    </telerik:RadGridView.Columns>
</telerik:RadGridView>

Hi Edward,

I tested the issues you reported with our Q3 2011 version and they are no longer reproducible. You may download it and test it on your side.
Let me know if further assistance is needed.

Hello,
It looks like there are some lingering issues in the current release with paste when SelectionMode = Extended.

Here's what I'm experiencing in a grid with 10 rows:

1. Copy 2 rows from an Excel spreadsheet; select row 3 in grid and paste => rows 3 and 4 are replaced with new content; no problem.
2. Copy another 2 rows from spreadsheet; select row 7 in grid and paste => rows 4 and 5 are replaced with new content, not rows 7 and  8 as expected.
3. Copy another 2 rows from spreadsheet; select any row in grid and paste => nothing happens.

If I reset SelectionMode to the default setting, multiple pastes work without a glitch.

Appreciate your assistance...

Hello Vera,
I would like to keep tabs on this issue so I can know when a fix is available.  Is there a PITS item for this I can track?

Thanks
