Problem selecting text when using FilteringMode="FilterRow"

[Steve]

Launch the Telerik WPF Demos, and go to the "Filtering Configuration" demo.

Change the FilteringMode to FilterRow

Type some text in one of the filter textboxes

Using your mouse, attempt to click and drag to highlight this text.

The column reordering mechanism of the grid kicks in, instead of highlighting the text as would be expected.

 

Is there any way to change this behaviour?

 

Thanks

Hello Steve,

The issue you have reported is known to us and we are currently working on a fix. In the meantime, you can make use of the following workaround (assuming your RadGridView has a Name equal to clubsGrid):

public MainWindow()
{
    InitializeComponent();
    this.clubsGrid.FieldFilterEditorCreated += clubsGrid_FieldFilterEditorCreated;
}

private void clubsGrid_FieldFilterEditorCreated(object sender, Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridView.EditorCreatedEventArgs e)
{
    e.Editor.AddHandler(FrameworkElement.MouseEnterEvent, new MouseEventHandler(OnMouseEnter), true);
    e.Editor.AddHandler(FrameworkElement.MouseLeaveEvent, new MouseEventHandler(OnMouseLeave), true);
}

private void OnMouseLeave(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
{
    var parentHeaderCell = (sender as FrameworkElement).ParentOfType<GridViewHeaderCell>();
    if (parentHeaderCell != null)
    {
        DragDropManager.SetAllowDrag(parentHeaderCell, true);
    }
}

private void OnMouseEnter(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
{
    var parentHeaderCell = (sender as FrameworkElement).ParentOfType<GridViewHeaderCell>();
    if (parentHeaderCell != null)
    {
        DragDropManager.SetAllowDrag(parentHeaderCell, false);
    }
}

I hope you find this helpful.
