WinGrid Loses Keyboard Access After The Escape Key Is Pressed Three Times
posted

Recently during testing on a winGrid that is attached to a winForm that is nested as a smartPart in another winForm, I found that when I pressed escape three times while in an AddNew row in the grid the grid lost focus for any futher keyboard entry or navigation.  The first two escape key presses were handled as expected but on the third one, the winGrid loses focus and activation and unless it is re-established by selecting it with the mouse, keyboard entry is unavailable.

Can someone give me a hint on what is happening when the escape key is pressed three times consecutively in the AddNew row?

I resolved the problem by adding some code to the "AfterRowCancelUpdate" event to put focus back to the previous row.  I am surprised that the winGrid did not do that by default.  Did I perhaps set a property incorrectly that caused this behavior?

Thank you in advance for the help.

    If this is really about the public version of WinGrid you may want to repost this here: http://forums.labs.infragistics.com/forums/65.aspx

    Hope this helped.

    I put some code in the "AfterRowCancelUpdate" event to put focus back to the previous row which solved the escape problem in the AddNew row. I am surprised that the winGrid did not do that by default.

    It also has mysteriously stopped losing focus capability when the escape key is pressed three or more times consecutively in other parts of the winGrid. I did nothing codewise to alter that.
