[Solved] Multiple select issues with FormTemplate

[jai beales]

There seems to be issues with using a formtemplate (in EditColumn) - particularly with DropDownLists - with the AllowMultiRowSelection. Selecting items in the dropdownlist select rows underneath the row being edited. Also clicking within form template draws the selection box (used for drag selecting multiple rows).

Is there a way of turning off the click and drag selection of multiple rows and only allowing shift-click or ctrl-click selection?

This is version 5.1.2.0. Below is the markup:

Hi Jai,

Try upgrading to the latest version of the Grid.
