ShowGridMenu only react on keyboard after mouse click

created 9 years ago

When creating a Data Grid with a Table View inside, the context menu does not always react on keyboard input (either Shift+F10 or the menu key). Selecting a cell and press either Shift+F10 or menu key will not trigger the ShowGridMenu event. However, when pressing the right mouse key the event is triggered. After doing this, the keyboard input also works for that specific cell. The mouse click seems to set HasDXContextMenu, which initially is not set.

I have include a very simple example which is basically the default template for a Data Grid with Table Layout.

Hello,
This issue is related to the following one and has been already fixed: RowCellMenuCustomizations menu is not shown when the Context menu is pressed. Please try to update to 15.1.9 to resolve this issue.

Thanks,
Kirill

      Hi,
      I have updated to 15.2.4 instead of 15.1.9 because that was more convenient. I tested it and came to the conclusion that only a part of the problem is resolved. Pressing the menu key now always works. However the key combination shift+F10 still only works after the context menu is shown at least once for that particular cell. I used the same example project, only updated it to the 15.2.4 version.
      Kind regards,
      Joost

        Hello,
        You are right, it seems that this issue isn't fully related to the mentioned one and it needs to research this issue separately from the issue with the "Menu" key. I created a separate ticket on your behalf: <sclink viewType="IDSubject" id=T323432" /> and forwarded it to our R&D team for further research. Follow our notifications to be informed about our progress.

        Thanks,
