Currently, it’s for Mac OSX users not possible to use the ctrl+click multiselect functionality of DHTMLX Grid. This is because ctrl+click is the equivalent is a right-mouse click in Mac OSX and can’t be overidden (thankfully) by javascript.
Since the onclick event object only contains information whether the alt or ctrl button was pressed along with the click, the only other alternative is to use the alt key to do multiselect rows one at a time.
What would be the best approach to handle this? Is there an flag in DHTMLX Grid I can change? Should I write my own event handler and let it programatically select rows?
It seems that I was working with an old version of DHTMLX Grid, where this feature was not yet implemented. Although I created a workaround by replacing every occurence of “ctrlKey” in the *.js file with “altKey” using PHP when a Macintosh user viewed the website, using a clientside solution is much (much!) better.
