Type	Description
EditorShowMode	A EditorShowMode enumeration value which specifies how a cell editor is activated.

Remarks

The GetShowEditorMode method overrides the base class ColumnView.GetShowEditorMode method to return EditorShowMode.Click if the View’s ColumnViewOptionsBehavior.EditorShowMode option is set to EditorShowMode.Default and the multiple cell selection (block selection) is allowed.

To enable individual cells and blocks of cells to be selected, set the View’s ColumnViewOptionsSelection.MultiSelect option to true and the GridOptionsSelection.MultiSelectMode property to GridMultiSelectMode.CellSelect.
