Hi
Good morning
I do think I have some feature required for my application which maynot be available with current version of DHTMLX grid. I do use DHTMLX Grid and Tree in my present application. Initially client requested for block selection and copy/paste the data into grid. But recently they requested for block deletion functionality. As I could see this feature is not available with current available version of DHTML grid, could you please recommend some solution to resolve issue.
Requirement:
If user selects blocks of cells in DHTML grid and try to delete, he/she should be able to delete the data. Currently I have only copy & paste feature available.
Your suggestion would be of great help to me.
Thanks

You can use “onKeyPress” event to define custom action on delete button pressing:
mygrid.attachEvent(“onKeyPress”,doOnKeyPressed);
…
function doOnKeyPressed(code,ctrl,shift){
if (code==46){
if (mygrid._selectionArea){
var leftTopRowInd=mygrid._selectionArea.LeftTopRow;
var leftTopColInd=mygrid._selectionArea.LeftTopCol;
var rightBottomRowInd=mygrid._selectionArea.RightBottomRow;
var rightBottomColInd=mygrid._selectionArea.RightBottomCol;
for (var i=leftTopRowInd; i<rightBottomRowInd+1;i++){
for (var j=leftTopColInd; j<rightBottomColInd+1; j++){
mygrid.cellByIndex(i,j).setValue("");
}
}
}
else alert (“please select any cell to delete it”)
}
return true;
}
