I want to allow the user to color selected cells by clicking a button (say, red, green and blue buttons).
To get the selected cells I found this code:
$('div#example1').handsontable(options);
//get the instance using jQuery wrapper
var ht = $('#example1').handsontable('getInstance');
//Return index of the currently selected cells as an array [startRow, startCol, endRow, endCol]
var sel = ht.getSelected();
//'alert' the index of the starting row of the selection
alert(sel[0]);
But I can't run this code when clicking a button, because the selection "disappear" after clicking and before the function starts to run.
I try following this instruction but I need a workaround this issue.
please add outsideClickDeselects: false, to your options in constructor and you can perform the 'ht.getSelected()' method.
How about using the afterSelectionEnd event to store the selection in a hidden field?
Then when pressing the button, you highligh/color the cells using the hidden selection info.
Would that work?

I need to display open a pane where I can display the full text of selected column.
I was referring to
How can I add multiple tooltips on kendo ui grid.
but not getting how to get the tooltip for each column selected.
Thanks in advance.
See if this demo helps you.
The Tooltip widget has a content configuration that accepts either a string or a function returning a string.
This function gets a parameter containing the target for the tooltip which is the element your mouse is hovering over.
You can filter the elements so that only tds pop the tooltip.
Here's how I built and applied the tooltip options object I use in the example:
$("#container").kendoTooltip({
filter: "td",
content: function(e) {return e.target.html();}
});
This example will show a tooltip containing the same content as the cell you're poining at.
If you have any further questions, feel free to ask them.
I am playing with this example by Kendo: http://dojo.telerik.com/EneFe
I have modified it so that the rows are selectable (selectable:true).
I have added a button on the top which calls the grid.clearSelection() function.
This is supposed to clear all selection but it does not clear the selection of rows that are selected in the dropdown table. (Recreate: click on the first row "Nancy", expand it and click on "10258 - Austria", then click the "Clear Selection" button and only "Nancy" will clear)
Is the function not working properly or am I misusing it?
In any case - how can I achieve a total clearing of all selected rows?
This is because they are two separate grids. Check this:

I turn to you stackoverflow!
I'm using a kendo ui batch grid with InCell editing set and am wanting to know a way to set a particular column into edit mode.
I've tried using editCell, and so far it hasn't caused any of the cells to go into edit mode :(
In this particular case, we have a ClientTemplate column specified which has a button (really its a link...) in it. When the user clicks the button I would like a particular cell in that row to switch to edit mode. For reference here's what the specific column template looks like:
columns.Template(t => { }).HeaderTemplate("")
.ClientTemplate(#"
<a href='javascript: void(0)' class='abutton SecondaryActiveBtn' onclick='editVariableRate(this)' title='Edit'>Edit</a>")
.Width(100).Title("");
Here is the particular javascript method that gets called on the button click:
function editVariableRate(element) {
grid = $("#variableFee").data("kendoGrid");
var cell = $(element).closest("tr").find("td:eq(2)");
grid.editCell(cell);
}
Am I doing something wrong here because the particular column never goes into edit mode?
For reference, I can do the following successfully using the same "cell" variable:
var cellIndex = grid.cellIndex(cell);
and cellIndex gets assigned correctly, so I don't think its a problem of selecting the particular cell...
Anybody have any ideas?
Figured it out! It was the link that was the cause of the problem :( Swapping that to be an input button was the only thing that was needed. bangs head into desk.
I have a grid (master/detail) with keys bound. I'd like to have the first row in the master grid automatically selected when the page starts.
I used setSelection in the GridComplete event and can get the row selected. However, the up/down arrows (and the detail grid) do not function until the user actually clicks on a row with the mouse.
Does anyone have any ideas about how to get a row selected programatically so that the grid operates as if the user had clicked the row?
Thanks,
-Bill
The problem is that the grid does not have focus, so keyboard commands are not routed to it when the grid is initially displayed. You can work around this by explicitly calling focus after setting your initial selection:
jQuery("#myGrid").setSelection(myID).focus();
When you click on a row in jqgrid it gets "selected" (applies some coloring and styles), other "selected" rows get deselected. However, when I click on an input button element in one of the cells in a row nothing happens... the row is not "selected". How would I make the clicking of this button (or link or whatever) cause the row to be "selected" (and deselected when a different row is clicked)?
Solution:
In the gridComplete method of jqgrid I can attach a click handler to each button, get the ID of the button's parent row and then call jqgrid's setSelection method on it, passing in the required row id as a parameter.
$('#mygrid').find('input[type=button]').each(function() {
$(this).click(function(){
var therowid = $(this).parents('tr:last').attr('id');
$('#mygrid').jqGrid('setSelection', therowid );
});
});
On "tricky" thing about this is that instruction on the jqgrid website show two different ways to go about doing this. The above uses the new API which does things rather differently so you will find a mix of suggestions online that switch between this new API and the older one.
