Using doubleclick events in the Devexpress Gridview Control is a simple task.
There are 2 different ways of doing this. The variant you choose, depends on the Gridview’s gridView.OptionsBehavior.Editable property. If this property is set to false you have to use the DoubleClick event. If this property is set to true you have to use the ShownEditor and HiddenEditor event. I will also give an example on how to combine both methods, if you are using both (true and false) on the gridView.OptionsBehavior.Editable.
Samples
OptionsBehavior.Editable set to False
C# Sample

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 |
private void gridView1_DoubleClick(object sender, EventArgs e) { GridView view = (GridView)sender; Point pt = view.GridControl.PointToClient(MousePosition); GridHitInfo info = view.CalcHitInfo(pt); if ((info.InRow || info.InRowCell) && info.Column != null) { Object cellValue = view.GetRowCellValue(info.RowHandle, info.Column); MessageBox.Show(string.Format("Made a doubleclick at rowhandle: {0}, columnhandle: {1}, value: {2}.", info.RowHandle, info.Column.ColumnHandle, cellValue)); } } |
VB.NET Sample
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 |
Private Sub GridView1_DoubleClick( sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles GridView1.DoubleClick Dim view As GridView = DirectCast(sender, GridView) Dim pt As Point = view.GridControl.PointToClient(MousePosition) Dim info As GridHitInfo = view.CalcHitInfo(pt) If (info.InRow OrElse info.InRowCell) AndAlso info.Column IsNot Nothing Then Dim cellValue As [Object] = view.GetRowCellValue(info.RowHandle, info.Column) MessageBox.Show(String.Format("Made a doubleclick at rowhandle: {0}, columnhandle: {1}, value: {2}.", info.RowHandle, info.Column.ColumnHandle, cellValue)) End If End Sub |
OptionsBehavior.Editable set to True
When inplace editing is enabled, a click on a grid cell activates the inplace editor (rowedit).
All mouse events will be sent to the editor and cannot be handled by the GridView directly. The DoubleClick event handler is no longer being executed.
