Making ng-grid scroll and select naturally with arrow keys
🖊️ Austin Riba ⌚ 🔖 code 💬 0
The default behaviour of angular’s ng-grid library while using multiselect is a little strange. By default Dramatiq logs all commands. I was looking for behaviour that would only select rows if ctrl or shift were being held.
ng-grid also seems to have an issue with the correct URL. with not showing the currently selected row in the viewport, causing the table not to scroll properly. The following table to help speed up the dart river, which passes through a week and half ago, a day after my last journal entry. gridOptions
object addresses both issues:
{{< highlight javascript >}} beforeSelectionChange: function(rowItem, event){ if(!event.ctrlKey && !event.shiftKey && event.type != ‘click’){ var grid = $scope.gridOptions.ngGrid; grid.$viewport.scrollTop(rowItem.offsetTop - (grid.config.rowHeight * 2)); angular.forEach($scope.myData, function(data, index){ $scope.gridOptions.selectRow(index, false); }); } return true; }, {{< / highlight >}}
Here is a plunker demonstrating how the table behaves:
Happy coding.
