Remarks
If a group row is focused this method returns null.
The currently focused row is determined by the ColumnView.FocusedRowHandle property.
To get the edit value within the currently focused cell, the ColumnView.GetFocusedValue method can be used. The ColumnView.GetRowCellValue method can be used to get the values of any column in any row.
The following methods can be used to get the displayed values of specific cells: ColumnView.GetFocusedDisplayText, ColumnView.GetFocusedRowCellDisplayText and ColumnView.GetRowCellDisplayText.
Note
Detail pattern Views do not contain data and they are never displayed within XtraGrid. So, the GetFocusedRowCellValue member must not be invoked for these Views. The GetFocusedRowCellValue member can only be used with Views that display real data within the Grid Control. Use the following methods to access these Views with which an end user interacts at runtime.
- GridControl.MainView - returns the top most View in a grid;
- GridControl.FocusedView - returns the focused View;
- GridControl.DefaultView - returns the currently maximized View;
- the sender parameter of View specific events;
- GridView.GetDetailView - returns a detail clone View for a specific master row.
