Row selection with spanning [message #1777622]

Hello,

I am using spanning across rows, and have implemented spanning in the row header region as well. I would like to make it so that the row header region is selected whenever any cell that is in the span of the row header region is selected. Currently this only happens if the topmost cell of the row spanned region is selected.

How would I go about doing this?

From the previous posts I assume you now have a custom RowHeaderLayer. There you need to adjust the getConfigLabelsByPosition() to respect your expected behavior.

But from looking at the screenshot I wonder why your are making all this complicated spanning stuff when it looks like that the use of the TableCellPainter for the Effects column should have been sufficient.

It's because we have several layers of spanning required. You can't see it in the screenshot but there's another column, "Causes", which has several "Mitigations" that need to line up with each cause, and each "Mitigation" has several "Requirements" that need to line up with each "Mitigation", and on and on.

Also thanks for all of your help, you've helped me a lot over these past few months and it's been really useful!

I am unsure how to proceed. What config labels would I need to add to ensure that if any row position in the span is selected the row header cell is highlighted?

Alternatively if you could tell me how to simply remove the row header highlighting feature entirely that would work.

Sorry, it is not done via config labels. It is the display mode that is responsible. You need to override getDisplayMode
