Grid focus on Double click

[Akshar AKParticipant]

Hello,
I am using a JQxGrid and the properties am using are as follows.

$(gridName).jqxGrid({
  			width: gridWidth,
  		//	autoheight : true,
  			height : 395,
 			source : dataAdapter,
 			verticalscrollbarlargestep: 50,
 			theme : 'theme',
 			editable : true,
 			rowsheight:22,
 			showstatusbar : true,
 			showfiltercolumnbackground: true,
 			showfilterrow: true,
            filterable: true,
            showaggregates : true,
            columnsresize:true, 
 			selectionmode : 'multiplecellsadvanced',
 			columns :gridColumns ,
 			handlekeyboardnavigation: function (event) {
                var rowindex = $("#"+location+"Grid").jqxGrid('getselectedcell');
                var key = event.charCode ? event.charCode : event.keyCode ? event.keyCode : 0;
                if (key == 46) 
                {
                    if(rowindex.datafield=="strJobCodeId"
                           || rowindex.datafield=="strActivityCode"
                           || rowindex.datafield=="strTotalApprovedAndCR"
                           || rowindex.datafield=="strEAC"
                           || rowindex.datafield=="strCRPastApprovals"
                           || rowindex.datafield=="strSurplusOrDeficit"
                           || rowindex.datafield=="strTotalFTE"
                           || rowindex.datafield=="strTotalCost")
                    {
                                  return true;
                    }
                    else
                     {
                           for(var i=0; i< pastActualColumns.length; i++)
                                  {
                                         if(pastActualColumns[i] == rowindex.datafield)
                                                return true;
                           }
                     }
                }}
 			
 					
 		});

The problem is when I double click on the cell, the values inside the grid is getting focused. Now if I simply move the mouse around, where ever the cursor is moved the cells are getting selected. Is this normal in JQWidgets? or some property to disable this?

Thanks in advance

Hi Akshar AK,

That seems to be the default behavior in this selection mode. The selection happens on Click and Drag.

Hello peter,
If I click and drag all the cells will be selected. The thing is when I double click on a cell, the values inside are getting selected. I just do a double click and move my mouse. but when I do a double click, the value inside the cell is getting selected for me to change it, on those change am updating few columns of the same row, before the change has happened if I move the cursor, where ever I drag the cursors, the cells are getting selected. Its like click and drag. But am not dragging, just moving the mouse.

Hi Akshar AK,

Yes, when you double click, the cell’s value should be on focus i.e it should be selected.

but after tat if I move the mouse why will all the cells on which the mouse move be selected?

Hi Akshar AK,

Probably, because you use an old version of the library. The described behavior by you is not the same as in this demo: http://www.jqwidgets.com/jquery-widgets-demo/demos/jqxgrid/defaultfunctionality.htm?arctic which has the same selection mode and the Grid is editable.
