I need to retain the selected rows in the iggrid after i double click to edit rows in iggrid. ex. If i double click the row to edit, my previously selected rows are getting de-selected.
Kindly guide me to resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks,
Bala.R
Hello Bala,
Thank you for contacting Infragistics!
This is the expected behavior as clicking onto a row once selects that row. If you want to prevent this I recommend either set the multipleCellSelectOnClick option of the selection behavior to true. Which means the previous row(s) and the newly clicked to edit will both be selected if multiple selection is enabled. The other would be to on selection of a row make a list of selected row(s) and if you then go into edit unselect the new row and select the previous row(s) in your list.

Please let me know if you have any further questions concerning this matter.
Hi Mike,
Appreciate your response.
I tried multipleCellSelectOnClick = true, in the grid feature but it is not working .Is there any other work around for this issue except the second option that you suggested - making a list of selected rows, why because is ? it is affecting performance.
Let me know , if you have any other solution for this.
Thanks in Advance,
Thanks

I am following up to see if you have any further questions concerning this matter.
Please let me know if I may be of further assistance with this matter.
Thank you for the update. It seems multipleCellSelectOnClick is ignore when the mode is set to row. Keeping your own list to revert to upon entering edit mode is the workaround.
