Is this a bug?
Calling System.Windows.Forms.Form.ShowDialog() fires all way up through UltraGrid.OnPaint() then UltraGrid.EnsureTempActiveRowAssigned() which sets an active row in my grid (which happens to be somewhere in the middle, not even the first row).
I've caught the BeforeRowActivate event to see what's going on.
See the below call stack, thanks.

Having looked at the code for the UltraGrid and UltraGridBase classes, I saw the following in UltraGridBase:
internal Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.UltraGridRow TempActiveRow { get { return this.tempActiveRow; } set { // SSP 11/17/04 UWG2234 // Changed the behavior so that when a column is sorted we maintain the scroll position // instead of keeping the first row the first row. Added SetTempActiveRow method and // moved the code from here into that method. We are passing in true for the // scrollIntoView parameter in order to maintain the previous behavior which was to // scroll the row into view. // this.SetTempActiveRow( value, true ); } }
I then checked the sort on the first column in my grid, and after a couple of tests, found this to be the reason why. The grid gets loaded up with rows, the sort if then performed on the first column (which happens to be name in this case), the first row in the grid now ends up in the middle of the grid which is still the active row.
So in short, it's due to the column sort and the above change.
If someone could verify my findings, then anyone else who comes across this problem won't have to do the digging that I had to.
Could someone sort the formatting on my previous post? It seems to have gone off screen.
Thanks.
