I have a VERY simple grid. Only 1 band, not row groupings, no draw filters, nothing just a plain old grid. And I'm having a weird problem...
There are a bunch of columns in the grid, but only 3 of them are set as "AllowEdit". The rest of the columns are all set to "Row Select" and "NoEdit". Ok the 3 "editable" columns are set to be "Fixed-Right" and in fact they are fixed and looks good. UNTIL I go to edit the values. In edit mode the edit text is just in weird spots. It "appears" that the location of the edit text is taking the settings for the column "under" the Fixed Column.
The reason I say "appears" is that when I scroll the grid all the way to the right where there are no columns "under" the fixed rows, the edit mode works fine?
Any thoughts?
Here is the grid scrolled to the Left:
See how the Edit mode text is wacky?
Here is the same grid scrolled all the way to the right:
See all better.
Pretty odd, If I click on the "Notes" column you can't even see the cursor.
Hi,
I don't remember ever seeing anything like that before.
I tried this out in a simple sample and my sample works fine. I have attached it here so you can check it out and see if it works for you. If it does, then this must be caused by some other factor in your application. If you get the same problem, then that's a good indication that this is a bug in the version of the grid you are using.
Hmmm... Ok I'm on 2010 vol 1. I"m installing vol 3 now to see if it fixes it.
Thanks for taking the time to check it out. I'll let you know if going to vol 3 fixes it.

Ok upgraded to Vol 3 and same result. So then I tried your grid, upgraded it to VS 2010 and Vol 3 and I have the same problem.
Look at the first Row, 2nd Fixed column.
Same Row/Col, scrolled to the right in edit mode.
I have tried this on several different computers and works the same on all, so I don't think this is a video driver issue. .Net 3.5. Using the 2.x version of the infragistics controls. VS 2010 for compile.
Thoughts?
Hi Dan,
I ran my sample again and I am now seeing the problem. This morning when I tried it, I put a cell into edit mode, but I didn't actually type anything and it was working okay. But when I tried it now, the text shifts as soon as I start to type. So this looks like a bug to me.
I'm going to forward this thread and my sample over to Infragistics Developer Support so they can create a case for you and we can check it out.
YEAH!!! I finally found a bug and it wasn't just something STUPID I was doing wrong!!!! I have been working HEAVLY with your products, but the grid especiallly, for at least the last 6 or 7 years and this is my first confirmed bug!!! Do I get a T-Shirt<G>.
The scary thing is I think I know exactly what is happening. It is getting the CellUIElement from the cell behind the fixed column. And using it to set the extents of the Edit Control. That is why you get some cells where you can see the typing and others where you can't. Just a guess on my part. But Fixed Right is to cool of a feature not to use!
Compared to having to split the grid and then try and resize the split when the grid resizes and then trying to keep the "fixed" columns scrolled into view!!! And yes I did that before we got fixed right. NO FUN!!!
Thanks for your help here it is ALWAY appreciated. Tell your bosses that I'm very impressed how you research each problem and create samples! I think you deserve a raise!
Hello Dan,
I have logged this as a development issue.
Was there ever a case # generated for this? I'm still having the problem in 11.1 and it would be real nice to know when it was going to be fixed.
One more piece of information. All of these summaries are using a custom summary class. Not sure if that has anything to do with it. But thought I would add that little tidbit, if y'all are unable to reproduce.
Sorry messed up the upload of the image. But if you click on the image you will see what I'm talking about.
I think I may have found an additional problem with the "Fixed Right Columns"
This grid is using summaries that are displayed in the GroupByRow. The "Total" column is setup as fixed right. You will notice in this view the Totals column has values displayed.
Now the next image is after I have clicked on the Right Scroll button one time. You will notice that the Totals disappear. Scrolling the grid around brings them back. But they ALWAYS go away if you scroll the grid all the way to the right.
I gave a quick attempt at modifying the project you sent me to see if I could get it to do the same thing, but didn't get very far with the random dataset that was getting created.
I do notice that the "total" value does "disappear" if I scroll left and right quickly, but it is pretty random. Scrolling all the way to the right gets it everytime.
Thanks for the quick reply!
Have a good day!
If you go to the My Support Activity area of our web-site, you will see all the support cases associated with your account. I looked up the development issue associated with your case, and it wasn't resolved in time to make it into the Volume Release for NetAdvantage 2011 Volume 1. If everything goes as expected, the issue should be resolved by the first Service Release for 2011 Volume 1.
