Hello ruud7,

Let me know if you have any further questions on this.

Hello ruud7,

That's the thing though, its not really possible to tell if the cell has been clicked unless you use CellClick.  But this event doesn't happen until after the selection has already changed so that doesn't help us much.  The workaround I proposed only checked to see if the mouse was over the cell when the selection changed, at which point it would revert the selection.  It makes an assumption that if the mouse was over the cell when the selection changed, it was because the mouse was pressed.  It's not the most ideal way but I don't see any other option.  Silverlight doesn't have many of the mouse features that WPF has which would have made this much easier.

Hello Rob,

Thank you for your reply. I am actually using the Silverlight version. I duplicated the post once I noticed that I used the wrong forum and didn't find any delete option for the old post. Sorry about that.

So as you said in Silverlight this seems to be quite complicated. I already tried reseting the selection on the CellClicked event because there I know which column the cell was in but this caused a noticable flicker of the selection because the event occured later. I also thought if it might be possible to avoid bubbling the event from the template control to the grid but this also didn't seem to work, even though I set the Handled flag to true. How would you go about finding out which column was pressed in the SelectedRowsCollectionChanged event? I think I did not quite get that.

Do you see any other option of maybe avoiding the click event being passed on to the XamGrid if it is on a template column or any event triggered before the selection changes so I can maybe disable the selection of the XamGrid?

Thanks.
