[CLOSED] GridPanel getSelectionModel().Select

[rmelancon]

Trying to select a row in javascript by calling grid.getSelectionModel().selectById(id) as I have seen in 2.x examples, but apparently this has been deprecated though I can't find a reference in breaking changes. Also tried grid.getSelectionModel().Select(id) but that isn't defined either. What is the new method, it is not apparent from searches on this forum.
Thanks.

Hello @rmelancon!

You probably are trying something out of ordinary. It works just fine in this example: Grid Panel - Simple // Direct

Load the example, open your browser's developer tools (F12 key, usually), on console tab, send the command:

App.GridPanel1.getSelectionModel().select(2)

Then the selection happens. Maybe if you elaborate on your report, with a test case showing your exact scenario, we could help you further.

Yeah, so .select(2) works but .selectById(id) gives the error .selectById is not a function. So my assumption is that .selectById has been replaced by some other function or just isn't an option anymore. Looking at the sencha docs it looks like you can call .select with record instance or index, but apparently not by id, so what is the replacement for .selectById? or how would I get the row number of a certain id in order to select a specific row?

Hello @rmelancon!

This probably was removed from the selection model as it was not really the role of selectionmodel to know about what is the ID field of a record.

So something like this would have the selection model's .selectById() behavior:

var selModel = App.MyGrid.getSelectionModel(),
    store = selModel.getStore(); // get the store that is relatd to that selection model

selModel.select(store.getById(2)); // assuming you have a record with ID '2' on your store, of course.

You may want to check store.getById() returns null to display a message about non-existing record.

Well, I hope this helps!

Perfect, that's what I was looking for. Thanks!
