Using Touch Support with Editable Cells

You can use touch gestures to edit cells that allow editing.

Double-tap a cell to go into edit mode. Tap a cell to go into edit mode if the EditModePermanent property is true. Typing a character in the cell also starts edit mode.

Button, check box, multiple option, hyperlink, slider, and filter bar cells use the following touch gestures:

Touch Gesture	Mouse Action
Tap	Click
Double-tap	Double-click
Press and slide	Press left mouse button and move

GcTextBox, GcDateTime, number, regular expression, percent, currency, date time, general, and text cells have similar touch behaviors.

List box and rich text cells support touch gestures similar to standard controls.

If the Editable property is true for the combo box and multiple-column combo box cells, the gripper is displayed. The following image displays a gripper in the cell.

Using Code

You can set the ShowGrippersInEditingStatus property to true to display a gripper while the cell is in edit mode.

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        fpSpread1.ShowGrippersInEditingStatus = true;
    }

    private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        fpSpread1.ShowGrippersInEditingStatus = false;
    }

    private void fpSpread1_ShowGrippersInEditingStatusChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        listBox1.Items.Add("Status Changed");
    }

Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
     fpSpread1.ShowGrippersInEditingStatus = True
End Sub

Private Sub fpSpread1_ShowGrippersInEditingStatusChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles fpSpread1.ShowGrippersInEditingStatusChanged
    ListBox1.Items.Add("Status Changed")
End Sub

Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
    fpSpread1.ShowGrippersInEditingStatus = False
End Sub
