startEditingNew & row selection

[Kouty]

Hello,

is there a way to create a new row (startEditingNew) and have that row selected, in a in a ListGrid?

More precisely, I'd like the SelectionEvent event to be fired also when a new row is added.

Thanks

I'm getting the same request for example to delete a row you just created... no way to select this new row?

Same issue

Is there a workaround? When I validate a row I check the selected row to compare two columns (a from data and a to date), what is not working for added rows

CustomValidator customValidator = new CustomValidator() {
  @Override
  protected boolean condition(Object value) {
    if (newRow || value == null || !StringMethods.isNumber(value.toString()))
      return true;
    if (periodsGrid.getSelectedRecord() != null && periodsGrid.getSelectedRecord().getAttribute("fromDate") != null) {
      Integer fromDate = periodsGrid.getSelectedRecord().getAttributeAsInt("fromDate");
      Integer toDate = Integer.parseInt(value.toString());
      if (fromDate.compareTo(toDate) > 0) {
        return false;
      }
    }
    return true;
  }
};
