Applies To

fpSpread control

Description

Sets or returns whether the selected block of cells in the sheet remains highlighted when the control loses the focus.

Syntax

BOOL CSpreadSheet::GetRetainSelBlock( );
void CSpreadSheet::SetRetainSelBlock(BOOL value);

[form.]fpSpread.RetainSelBlock[ = boolean%]

Remarks

The default value for the RetainSelBlock property is True.

This setting is applied to the entire workbook, including all sheets in the control.

When the RetainSelBlock property is set to True, the selected block of cells retains its highlighting. When the RetainSelBlock property is set to False, the application removes the highlighting from the selected block, but then restores it when the control regains the focus. This also applies to the active cell.
