It might be a similar problem yes. I have the problem on Chrome and Edge but IE it works ok.

I am using v10.1.5 – should I upgrade from that?

But I don’t want my buttons to get thinner. Anyway at design time if I make the toolbar shorter so the buttons do not all fit on then at run time the expander drop down button does appear with the extra buttons on. So I can’t see why this can’t happen at run time.

Is a workaround to recreate the toolbar every time it is resized? – that sounds messy though.

>I have found that you are able to shift click on a jqxGrid through a jqxWindow

I didn’t know about that problem and now I have found it I need to get that fixed.

How can we stop the grid behind from getting a shift click when a window is open? Click and ctrl click don’t affect it. Only shift.

The toolbar takes 100% of the width of the viewport. Each button is a fixed width so where do the percentages come in? If the viewport is narrowed I want the buttons that do not fit to then appear on the dropdown button that should appear at the end. I don’t want my buttons to get narrower so there is no need for percentages.

That does not explain why your demo does not work properly and the expander drop down button half appears behind other controls.

[ajcsParticipant]

Thank you. I have done this and I can now focus on the grid.

But the grid sort/filter menu popup still appears behind the window.

[ajcsParticipant]

Can you please provide an example of how to get the text value from the input text box in the tool bar using the getTools() method?

Thanks

[ajcsParticipant]

Yes thanks but I need to enter text in the text area and I need the button click so I can open a window rather than dropping down anything.

[ajcsParticipant]

I managed to get this working by using the following multiple times:
$(this.Selector).jqxGrid({ selectedrowindex: Index });

[ajcsParticipant]

On my machine if the backing record is altered I have to call setCellValue to make it display the changes.

But if the grid has been sorted calling setCellValue is ignored and the grid always displays the old value. This is the main problem.

[ajcsParticipant]

Is there any answer on this please? I need to understand the grid cells contents relationship with the setter on the backing record. Why sometimes it is not called and why sometimes it is called twice or once if you have sorted the grid.

[ajcsParticipant]

I am trying setCellValue but I am seeing different behaviours.

In the following example it sets the cell value but that does not call the property setter on the backing record:
Example

On my machine when testing it is calling the property setter on the backing record.

What situation makes it call the record property setter when you set the cell value?

Actually on my machine it calls the setter twice but if I sort the grid then it only calls the setter once.

Really the setter does not need calling because the backing record has already been set first and I am trying to set the cell value to the same value.

So these different behaviours are confusing me and causing re-entrant code.

I am guessing when the grid is sorted there is some sort of object cloning and property scraping going on inside the grid because I don’t think my record class instances are the same maybe when sorted.

Please explain, thank you

[ajcsParticipant]

Thank you very much. That fixed the problem. It still occasionally did it so I increased the delay to 250 and now is working well.

[ajcsParticipant]

Have you looked at the example above? Any ideas how to fix it?

[ajcsParticipant]

Yes here is a working example of the problem

Example

[ajcsParticipant]

Thanks but I found the problem happens with selectionmode = multiplerowsextended

Then the rubber banding happens.

You can see this if you go to your grid demos and look at the “Data Export” example. If you click on the mouse and hold and drag you can see an expanding blue box on the screen. Now this is what happens when I double click and open a new browser tab. When I come back the mouse is still dragging this blue box around.

I need to use selectionmode = multiplerowsextended so is there a way to fix this problem please?
