Delete key

[Gabor]

Hi,

I would like to use a RadGridView and be able to tell when the user pressed the delete key. It's important that the grid does NOT actually delete the current row, but it seems like disabling this causes the KeyDown event not to fire when the delete key was pressed. Is this an intended behaviour? Please advise,

Thanks,
Gabor

Hi,

I just learned that pressing the delete key does not fire a keydown event, but it does fire a keyup event when the button is released. So my problem is solved, however I still not understand why this behaviour is intended.

Best wishes
Gabor

Hi Gabor,

The keydown event is processed by the RadGridView and because of this you can't process it within the KeyDown event. Rather, you should create a descendant class of RadGridView and process the OnKeyDown method there.

As to canceling the delete operation, you can subscribe to the RowsChanging event and if the Action is Remove, cancel it:
 

private void radGridView1_RowsChanging(object sender, Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewCollectionChangingEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Action == Telerik.WinControls.Data.NotifyCollectionChangedAction.Remove)
    {
        e.Cancel = true;
    }
}

If you have additional questions, feel free to contact me.
 

Sincerely yours,
Nikolay

Hello Goran,

Thank you for writing. 

In order to handle mouse and keyboard input while editing the grid, it is necessary to subscribe to the respective events of the initialized editor. The following help article demonstrates a approach: http://docs.telerik.com/devtools/winforms/gridview/editors/handling-editors'-events

If you need to disable changing the editor's value with the mouse wheel, you can set the GridSpinEditorElement.EnableMouseWheel property to false after the editor is initialized:

this.radGridView1.CellEditorInitialized+=radGridView1_CellEditorInitialized;

private void radGridView1_CellEditorInitialized(object sender, Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewCellEventArgs e)
{
   GridSpinEditor editor = e.ActiveEditor as GridSpinEditor;
   if (editor!=null)
   {
       GridSpinEditorElement element = editor.EditorElement as GridSpinEditorElement;
       element.EnableMouseWheel = false;
   }
}

As to the arrow keys, you can disable changing the value by setting the GridSpinEditorElement.InterceptArrowKeys property to false.

I hope this information helps. Should you have further questions I would be glad to help.
