I'm trying to add some specific behavior to a datagridview
control (if you can put it like that).
I would like to have a multiplelines
textbox
control in the datagridview
. I achieved this when giving a string that is too long to fit in the textbox
, it's automatic placed on a second line.
So the steps would be enter text into a cell, while the focus is on the cell press ctrl+enter so that the text entered next is on a second line.
dataGridView1.DefaultCellStyle.WrapMode = DataGridViewTriState.True
dataGridView1.AutoSizeRowsMode = DataGridViewAutoSizeRowsMode.AllCells
But I would also be able to force a second line by pressing ctrl + enter key
On this matter my internet search came up empty.
I guess it would be catching the key press event within a cell but I can't seem to find this event.
Possible events
I tried this event, but it only happens when the Datagridview
in total is selected.
Private Sub DataGridView1_CellContentClick(sender As Object, e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles DataGridView1.KeyPress
' Some magic here.
End Sub
