Selecting row with right-click of mouse

[User (Old forums)]

#17305 |

Currently, if I right click on an unselected row, it brings up the context menu of the previously selected row.  This is because it is not selecting the row where the cursor is clicked, but rather just referencing the currently clicked row.  The result is that you have to left-click the row and then right-click it to bring up the context menu.

Is there a way to get it to select the row that you right-click on so that it takes only one click to bring up the context menu on a desired row?

With the kind assistance of Xceed tech support, I was able to craft the following solution.  The “AddMouseEvents” procedure is called right after databinding.

Private Sub AddMouseEvents(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)

Dim c As Xceed.Grid.DataCell

Dim r As Xceed.Grid.DataRow

For Each r In mygrid.DataRows

For Each c In r.Cells

AddHandler c.MouseDown, AddressOf Cell_MouseDown

Next

Next

End Sub

Private Sub Cell_MouseDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As MouseEventArgs)

Dim c As Xceed.Grid.Cell = (CType(sender, Xceed.Grid.Cell))

Dim p As System.Drawing.Point = c.ClientPointToGrid(New System.Drawing.Point(e.X, e.Y))

 

If e.Button = System.Windows.Forms.MouseButtons.Right Then

Dim alreadyselected As Boolean = False

Dim r As Xceed.Grid.DataRow

For Each r In mygrid.SelectedRows

If r Is c.ParentRow Then

alreadyselected =

True

Exit For

End If

Next

If Not alreadyselected Then

mygrid.SelectedRows.Clear()

mygrid.SelectedRows.Add(c.ParentRow)

CType(c.ParentRow, Xceed.Grid.DataRow).Invalidate()

End If

mygrid.ContextMenuStrip.Show(mygrid, p)

End If

End Sub
