exception: onmousedownright on basegridbehaviour

[superold]

Hi,

VS2005

WinControls 2008Q3 1204

I get a null pointer exception when right clicking on a grid outside the rows. 

I think I found the bug, if I set the selectionmode to cellselect it works fine.

            if (this.GridControl.MultiSelect && this.GridControl.SelectionMode == GridViewSelectionMode.FullRowSelect)

            {

                if (!row.IsSelected)

                {

                    this.GridControl.SelectedRows.Clear();

                }

            }

01:05:54:735 10 Exception .... Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Question. Can I have the drop down show even if there are no rows in the grid? (add row?)

thanks

Hi Jorge Delgado-Lopez,

Thank you for contacting us.

This is a known issue and will be addressed in the upcoming Q3 2008 SP2 version, scheduled for the second half of January 2009. For the time being, I have prepared a workaround demonstrated in the attached sample project attached. This workaround concerns inheriting from RadGridView and overriding the OnMouseDown method. It will allow you to use FullRowSelect selection mode.

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

All the best,

I'm having the same problem.  Has Q3 2008 SP2 been released yet?  I don't see it in the Downloads.
Thanks,
