Hello Roya,

Here is an example of what you have asked for. The RadGridView in this example is ReadOnly as the Space key usually trigger a cell edit. 

// keep track of the selected index
private int _selectedRowIndex = 0;

this.radGridView1.SelectionChanged += new EventHandler(radGridView1_SelectionChanged);
this.radGridView1.KeyDown += new KeyEventHandler(radGridView1_KeyDown);

this.radGridView1.ReadOnly = true;
this.radGridView1.MultiSelect = false;
this.radGridView1.Rows[0].IsCurrent = true;
this.radGridView1.Rows[0].IsSelected = true;

void radGridView1_SelectionChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (this.radGridView1.SelectedRows.Count > 0)
    {
        _selectedRowIndex = this.radGridView1.SelectedRows[0].Index;
    }
}
 
void radGridView1_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.KeyCode == Keys.Space)
    {
        if (this.radGridView1.SelectedRows.Count > 0)
        {
            _selectedRowIndex = this.radGridView1.SelectedRows[0].Index;
            this.radGridView1.ClearSelection();
            this.radGridView1.CurrentRow = null;
 
        }
        else
        {
            this.radGridView1.Rows[_selectedRowIndex].IsCurrent = true;
            this.radGridView1.Rows[_selectedRowIndex].IsSelected = true;
        }
    }
 
}

As for changing the back colour, you can do this via the RowFormatting event
For example
this.radGridView1.RowFormatting += new RowFormattingEventHandler(radGridView1_RowFormatting);

void radGridView1_RowFormatting(object sender, RowFormattingEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.RowElement.IsSelected && e.RowElement.IsCurrent)
    {
        e.RowElement.NumberOfColors = 1;
        e.RowElement.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.LightBlue;
        e.RowElement.DrawFill = true;
    }
    else
    {
        e.RowElement.ResetValue(LightVisualElement.NumberOfColorsProperty);
        e.RowElement.ResetValue(LightVisualElement.BackColorProperty);
        e.RowElement.ResetValue(LightVisualElement.DrawFillProperty);
    }
}

You can read more about formatting rows and cells here: (formatting rows & formatting cells)

Hope this helps

Hello Roya, 

You should just be able to replace the reference to _selectedRowIndex to an Integer array. You can then cycle through the array in the key down to select the rows that were previously selected. 

If this helps, please remember to mark all helpful posts as answer. If you need further assistance, just let me know
thanks

Hello Richard
thank you Richard ,you reply my question very soon.
But i want to use Space to select rows,for example i want to select 10 rows then i press space on 10 rows one by one and all of  this 10 rows will be selected and the back color of them will be change.then i press space on some  of those 10 rows again so the status of them will be change to not selected and the back color of them will be change to default.

Hello,

@Roya, the desired functionality will be a great addition to RadGridView , so I will add it in PITS for future implementation. I have updated your Telerik points for bringing this to our attention. Here is a link to the feature request: http://www.telerik.com/support/pits.aspx#/public/winforms/10983.

Attached, you can find the modified version of Richard's project, where the rows will be selected/deselected by pressing space. I am using the Tag property of the row to save its state. Additionally, all selected rows can be accessed at any time in the selectedRows List.

I hope this helps.

Stefan
