    <p>I am using the <code>copy/paste</code> feature implemented in <code>Slickgrid</code>'s <code>slick.cellcopymanager.js</code> which is working fine (i.e. if you select some cells and press <code>Ctrl+c</code> then the content of these cells will be copied into your clipboard).</p> <p>I would like to trigger the <code>Ctrl+c</code> action programatically (for instance to allow doing copy/paste by clicking buttons instead of pressing keys). I know how to define the keydown event for <code>Ctrl+c</code>:</p> <pre><code>var e = jQuery.Event("keydown"); e.which = 67; e.ctrlKey = true; </code></pre> <p>however I just can't find out which object to trigger that event with and how so as to simulate the manual <code>Ctrl+c</code>. First I tried a simple trigger of the event which didn't work: </p> <p>-<code>div_dom_from_selected_cell.trigger(e); // nothing happens</code><br> -<code>grid_dom_wrapper.trigger(e); // nothing happens</code><br> -<code>$('body').trigger(e); // nothing happens</code><br> -<code>my_grid.trigger(e); // trigger is not a function</code></p> <p>Then I extended <code>slick.cellcopymanager.js</code> so as to make the <code>handleKeyDown</code> function available externally:</p> <pre><code>$.extend(this, { "init": init, "destroy": destroy, "clearCopySelection": clearCopySelection, "handleKeyDown": handleKeyDown, // ADDED THIS LINE "onCopyCells": new Slick.Event(), "onCopyCancelled": new Slick.Event(), "onPasteCells": new Slick.Event() }); </code></pre> <p>And tried to use it:</p> <pre><code>var copyManager = new Slick.CellCopyManager(); copyManager.init(my_grid); copyManager.handleKeyDown(e, { cell: cell, row: row, grid: my_grid } ); </code></pre> <p>The copying of the cell still doesn't work despite:<br> -me having a cell properly selected (it has the <code>selected</code> class)<br> -<code>handleKeyDown</code> being fired properly<br> -<code>e</code> and <code>args</code> arguments inside <code>handleKeyDown</code> looking good (I'm tracing with <code>console.log</code> and can't see any difference between manual <code>Ctrl+c</code> and programatic attempt` </p> <p><strong>How can I trigger the <code>Ctrl+c</code> event so as to copy a cell programatically?</strong></p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
