Cell Selection can be done through simple Mouse down or Arrow keys(up, down, left and right).

TreeGrid supports two types of cell selection mode which can be set by using selectionSettings.cellSelectionMode. They are:

  • Flow - The Flow value is set by default. Select range of cells between the start index and end index which includes in between cells of rows.
  • Box - Select range of cells within the start and end column indexes which includes in between cells of rows within the range.
