Force to highlight row on selection, and related some program problem

[Michael K]

Dear Sir :

Today, I have read your example 

https://www.syncfusion.com/kb/644/how-to-select-the-whole-row-wherever-you-click

to force the grid control to select whole row on user click any cell

However, we have get some problem after that:

1. When I complete our statement and dispose the form, it will get exception error and the source come from "Syncfusion.Grid.Grouping.Windows" <- I can skip this error under the exception case

2. The Text in custom filter bar will not be work.

Therefore, is that any good way to force user to select the whole row (without using event method?)

Thanks

Hi Michael,

Thank you for your interest in Syncfusion products.

To select the whole row without using the events, you can use the property ListBoxSelectionMode.

Code snippet:

//Disables the grid selection
gridGroupingControl1.TableOptions.AllowSelection = Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridSelectionFlags.None;

//Used to select the whole row

gridGroupingControl1.TableOptions.ListBoxSelectionMode = SelectionMode.One;

Let me know if you have any queries.

Regards,
Venkat.

Dear Venkat:

Thank for your advise, it work, 

but for solving selection cell background color is different from other column , 

I have add one more code

 gridGroupingControl1.TableOptions.ListBoxSelectionCurrentCellOptions = GridListBoxSelectionCurrentCellOptions.None

Thanks

Hi Michael,

Thanks for the update.

If you set the ListBoxSelectionCurrentCellOptions as None, the current cell drawn with the same color used for highlighting the whole record. Please refer the below kb for reference.
