    Hello Ajing,

    Thank you for writing.

    You can achieve the desired behavior by using the following approach. Subscribe to the CellEditorInitialized event and in its handler and access the GridSpinEditorElement. Set the InterceptArrowKeys to false in order to prevent the number in the decimal cell increase/decrease when using arrow keys. Then subscribe to the KeyDown of the element and in the event handler, navigate to the desired rows when the up/down keys are pressed. Here is sample code of the above:
    void radGridView1_CellEditorInitialized(object sender, GridViewCellEventArgs e)
    {
        GridSpinEditor editor = e.ActiveEditor as GridSpinEditor;
        if (editor != null)
        {
            GridSpinEditorElement element = editor.EditorElement as GridSpinEditorElement;
            element.InterceptArrowKeys = false;
            element.KeyDown -= new KeyEventHandler(element_KeyDown);
            element.KeyDown += new KeyEventHandler(element_KeyDown);
        }
    }
     
    void element_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.KeyData == Keys.Up)
        {
            radGridView1.GridNavigator.SelectPreviousRow(1);
        }
        if (e.KeyData == Keys.Down )
        {
            radGridView1.GridNavigator.SelectNextRow(1);
        }
    }

    I hope that the provided information addresses your question. Should you have any other inquiries, do not hesitate to contact us.
     
    Best wishes,

    Stefan:  I had asked for vb.net code because the Telerik converter is not working and hasn't for a couple months.  I've been using DotNet Spider instead.  But regardless of the converter I use, the code does not convert cleanly.

    These 2 lines of code in C#...
        element.KeyDown -= new KeyEventHandler(element_KeyDown);        
        element.KeyDown += new KeyEventHandler(element_KeyDown);

    Convert to this in vb.net...
        element.KeyDown -= New KeyEventHandler(AddressOf element_KeyDown)
        element.KeyDown += New KeyEventHandler(AddressOf element_KeyDown)

    But the compiler interprets these lines as errors because "element" (GridSpinEditorElement) has no KeyDown Event in its namespace.  Is this what VB would code as a RaiseEvent?? 

    Can you please send me the VB.net code for this.  We are converting the entire app next month to C# for this very reason, but in the mean time, I have to get this working.  Please try to respond today. Thanks.

    Answer to my own question....

    This C# code...
          element.KeyDown -= new KeyEventHandler(element_KeyDown);
          element.KeyDown += new KeyEventHandler(element_KeyDown);

    Converts to this VB.net code...
          AddHandler element.KeyDown, AddressOf element_KeyDown

    What is happening now is that the first down arrow key press moves to the next row, but the second down arrow key press moves 2 rows down and the 3rd press moves 4 rows down.  Is this caused by filtering or sorting or something?

    Answering my own question...

    Here is the VB.net code that works correctly (Stefan: please update if you have something better)...

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Private KeyDownisRunning As Boolean = False

    Private Sub rgvFactor_CellEditorInitialized(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewCellEventArgs) Handles rgvFactor.CellEditorInitialized
    Select Case e.ActiveEditor.GetType
    Case GetType(GridSpinEditor)
    If KeyDownisRunning = True Then Exit Sub
    Dim GseEditor As GridSpinEditor = TryCast(e.ActiveEditor, GridSpinEditor)
    If Not GseEditor Is Nothing Then
    Dim element As GridSpinEditorElement = TryCast(GseEditor.EditorElement, GridSpinEditorElement)
    element.InterceptArrowKeys = False
    AddHandler element.KeyDown, AddressOf element_KeyDown
    End If
    GseEditor = Nothing
    End Select
    End Sub

    Private Sub element_KeyDown(sender As Object, e As KeyEventArgs)
    KeyDownisRunning = True
    If e.KeyData = Keys.Up Then
    rgvFactor.GridNavigator.SelectPreviousRow(1)
    End If
    If e.KeyData = Keys.Down Then
    rgvFactor.GridNavigator.SelectNextRow(1)
    End If
    KeyDownisRunning = False
    End Sub

    Hello Mark,

    Please excuse me for omitting the VB.NET part. The converter is up and running (Code Converter), however, it will not convert event subscriptions (all of the converters out there doesn't do that, just in some cases). However, to the question at hand, if you notice the first line 
    element.KeyDown -= new KeyEventHandler(element_KeyDown);

    this unsubscribes from the event, while the following line subscribes for it. 
    element.KeyDown += new KeyEventHandler(element_KeyDown);

    In VB this code looks as follows:
    AddHandler element.KeyDown, AddressOf element_KeyDown
    RemoveHandler element.KeyDown, AddressOf element_KeyDown

    More about subscribing to events in VB. NET can be found here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/7taxzxka.aspx.

    I hope this helps.

    Thank you Stefan....that helps!

    I'm reposting the complete "corrected" VB.net code for any future readers of this thread...

    Private Sub rgvFactor_CellEditorInitialized(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewCellEventArgs) Handles rgvFactor.CellEditorInitialized
        Select Case e.ActiveEditor.GetType
            Case GetType(GridSpinEditor)
                Dim GseEditor As GridSpinEditor = TryCast(e.ActiveEditor, GridSpinEditor)
                If Not GseEditor Is Nothing Then
                    Dim element As GridSpinEditorElement = TryCast(GseEditor.EditorElement, GridSpinEditorElement)
                    element.InterceptArrowKeys = False
                    AddHandler element.KeyDown, AddressOf element_KeyDown
                End If
        End Select
    End Sub
     
    Private Sub element_KeyDown(sender As Object, e As KeyEventArgs)
        Dim Element As GridSpinEditorElement = DirectCast(sender, GridSpinEditorElement)
        Select Case e.KeyData
            Case Keys.Up
                RemoveHandler Element.KeyDown, AddressOf element_KeyDown
                rgvFactor.GridNavigator.SelectPreviousRow(1)
            Case Keys.Down
                RemoveHandler Element.KeyDown, AddressOf element_KeyDown
                rgvFactor.GridNavigator.SelectNextRow(1)
            Case Keys.Enter
                RemoveHandler Element.KeyDown, AddressOf element_KeyDown
                rgvFactor.GridNavigator.SelectNextRow(1)
                RemoveHandler Element.KeyDown, AddressOf element_KeyDown
        End Select
    End Sub

    Here is an alternative as well:
    Private Sub rgvFactor_CellEditorInitialized(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewCellEventArgs) Handles rgvFactor.CellEditorInitialized
        Select Case e.ActiveEditor.GetType
            Case GetType(GridSpinEditor)
                Dim GseEditor As GridSpinEditor = TryCast(e.ActiveEditor, GridSpinEditor)
                If Not GseEditor Is Nothing Then
                    Dim element As GridSpinEditorElement = TryCast(GseEditor.EditorElement, GridSpinEditorElement)
                    element.InterceptArrowKeys = False
                           '    Cell editor initialized is fired every time the grid opens up an editor, so to avoid multiple subscriptions, we should first unsubscribe from previous subscriptions and the subscribe to the current editor
                    RemoveHandler element.KeyDown, AddressOf element_KeyDown
                    AddHandler element.KeyDown, AddressOf element_KeyDown
                End If
        End Select
    End Sub
      
    Private Sub element_KeyDown(sender As Object, e As KeyEventArgs)
        Dim Element As GridSpinEditorElement = DirectCast(sender, GridSpinEditorElement)
        Select Case e.KeyData
            Case Keys.Up
                rgvFactor.GridNavigator.SelectPreviousRow(1)
            Case Keys.Down
                rgvFactor.GridNavigator.SelectNextRow(1)
            Case Keys.Enter
                rgvFactor.GridNavigator.SelectNextRow(1)
        End Select
    End Sub

    Hi Fariba,

    This thread concerns RadGridView, not RadDock control. May I please ask you to open up a new thread in the respective forum. In the thread, please provide detailed description of the case, as I am unable to get a clear picture of the scenario from the provided information.
