Mouse Move Select Cell Stringgrid Code A Bit

Posted by webmaster Guido In Reply to: Drag and drop in Delphi stringgrid I want to drag text from one cell to another, but not drag from.

We define two integer variables for remembering from which cell we started dragging: SourceCol and SourceRow.

Next, we create handlers for the: - OnCreate event of the form, for setting up the StringGrid; - OnMouseDown event of the StringGrid: start the dragging; - OnDragOver event of the StringGrid: show the correct drag cursor during the dragging, indicates where the dragged stuff can be dropped (controlled by variable Accept); - OnDragDrop event of the StringGrid: finally, the dragged stuff is dropped onto a cell.

Note: I changed the name of the StringGrid to SG, to make the source code a bit easier to read.

It is written in Delphi XE5 and it requires no use of scripting languages.

As the generated code is large and complex, this has been wrapped up in a number of units, each providing classes that encapsulate part of this library (together with other utility methods).

This window is independant of the overalll application, and might not even be associated with the same application that is being automated.

The controls below extend the basic controls to export these values, amongst other properties.

It extends the control to allow it to interact with the MS-UIAutomation libraries.
