First displayed item in a PropertyGrid

[ljlevend]

I want to set PropertyGrid.SelectedGridItem to the first item that is
displayed in a PropertyGrid. Note that the first item that is displayed
depends on the value of PropertyGrid.PropertySort. Are there any methods
that can help with determining the first displayed item in a PropertyGrid?

Thanks,
Lance

I don't see why the OP's question is related to Whidbey.

I was awarded me that as well when I had sent this, I readed PropertyGrid as
the new grid in WhidBey, however did not correct that, because I was sure
you would do that.

No problem :-). I didn't see that the OP posted some other Whidbey-related
questions.

I am refering to the v1.1 PropertyGrid. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Hi,

I think we may try to iterate throught the propertygrid's item and call the
select method on the first one.

private void button1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
GridItem gi=propertyGrid1.SelectedGridItem;
if (this.propertyGrid1.PropertySort == PropertySort.Alphabetical )
{
GridItem p_gi=gi.Parent;
foreach( GridItem egi in p_gi.GridItems)
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine(egi.Label);
p_gi.GridItems[0].Select();
}
else
{
GridItem p_gi=gi.Parent.Parent;
foreach( GridItem egi in p_gi.GridItems)
{
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("");
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine(egi.Label);
foreach( GridItem eegi in egi.GridItems)
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine(eegi.Label);
}
p_gi.GridItems[0].GridItems[0].Select();
}
}

Hope this helps.
