Hi Boki!

In my NextGrid, I have some right-aligned columns. If one makes one of these narrower than it's caption (with the mouse during runtime), the header caption gets drawn correctly. Say the caption is "Position", then one gets for example "ition". (Maybe "Pos..." might be better even if right-aligned?)

(1) If one now forces an invalidation (eg by dragging another application's window over the grid) suddenly the whole caption is drawn and reaches into the neighbouring columns, sometimes overlaying their captions. See the second column "von (Falz)" in the second screenshot.

(2) In the above situation, if one now wildly drags and resizes a lot of columns, switches focus to different apps and back and so on (sorry for the unprecise description) some parts of the grid (header, indicator column) become transparent. Even if you close and reopen the form that contains the grid, the newly created grid shows these symptoms - seems to be cached somehow.

Do you know fixes for these issues?

Hi Boki!

AFAICT starting with Next suite 3.9.5, DropDownList ComboBoxes in NextGrid columns can't be dropped down anymore by clicking on the arrow button. Alt+Down still works.

Hi Boki!

It's me again. Nothing big this time, I think.
Nextsuite.exe creates a directory ...\Berg\Next Suite\Lib plus empty subdirectories. Are these meant for containing the dcu's? If so, could you include updated bdsproj's in your distribution? The current ones don't specify an unit output directory.

Hi all!

There are some features I (or rather our testers) miss:

1. If WantReturns = True, Enter moves the selection according toSelectionMoveDirection. Is it possible to let Shift-Enter have the inverse effect? Like in Excel: Enter moves down, Shift-Enter up.
2. Some of our test users would like it if pressing the up/down keys while editing a cell accepts the edited value and moves the selection up/down.
3. They also don't like the UpDown control in number columns, so I did set SpinButtons to False. However the up/down cursor keys still in-/decrement the value. Is it possible to turn this off?
4. It's hard to distinguish edit mode from non-edit mode because it's easy to overlook the cursor. I tried to set the color or BorderStyle of the cell editor via the Editor or InplaceEdit properties in different event handlers but to no avail. What could I do about this?

I've searched in the forum and the Next Suite sources for properties to get these feature, but didn't find anything. Did I overlook something?
If not: Boki, would you consider adding properties (or whatever) to support (some of) these?

Thanks in advance,
Uli.

Hi all!

I've trouble to make formatted TNxNumberColumns (in my case FormatMask = '#0.00' and Precision = 2) behave sensible if the user starts editing them. Suppose he navigates to one of these cells and types 5678.

1. without coEditorAutoSelect: The user get's 5.00678, because the grid formats the cell text after typing the first character.
2. with coEditorAutoSelect: The user get's 678, because after typing the first character the cell text (5.00 at this moment) is autoselected and gets overwritten by the following characters.

Do you know of a solution? I don't care much if coEditorAutoSelect is enabled or not - however typing 5678 should result in a cell text of 5678.

Thanks in advance,
Uli.
