Understanding rowselect, rowunselect and clearselection

[davistomParticipant]

I am groping around a bit trying to grasp some event sequences for the grid widget. In particular, I think I have determined by experiment that the rowunselect event is triggered with rowindex argument = -1 when a row is clicked with no row currently selected. However, if the clearselection method is invoked with a row selected, the selectedrowindex gets reset to -1 but the rowunselect event does not trigger. Am I interpreting the event behavior correctly from my experiments? Thanks.

Hi davistorm,

clearselection does not raise “rowunselect” event, because in general you know the place in your code when you call a method so an additional callback is not necessary in that case. The other point is that “clearselection” may clear 100+ rows which should definitely not result in 100 calls of “rowunselect” event handler.
