RowSpanSelectionMode (Smart GWT EE API 13.1p (2026-02-03))

java.lang.Object
- java.lang.Enum<RowSpanSelectionMode>
- - com.smartgwt.client.types.RowSpanSelectionMode

All Implemented Interfaces:

ValueEnum, java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Comparable<RowSpanSelectionMode>
```
public enum RowSpanSelectionMode
extends java.lang.Enum<RowSpanSelectionMode>
implements ValueEnum
```
Behavior of selection when row spanning is active. See ListGrid.useRowSpanStyling.

Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants
Enum Constant and Description
`BOTH` when a cell is clicked on, selects any cells in any other columns which are at least partially spanned by the clicked cell
`FORWARD` when a cell is clicked on, select any cells in subsequent columns which are at least partially spanned by the clicked cell
`OUTERSPAN` behaves like "forward", except as though the cell in the first column was clicked instead.

- Enum Constant Detail
  - FORWARD
```
public static final RowSpanSelectionMode FORWARD
```
    when a cell is clicked on, select any cells in subsequent columns which are at least partially spanned by the clicked cell
    If this enumerated value is used in a Component XML file or server-side DataSource descriptor (.ds.xml file), use the value "forward".
  - BOTH
```
public static final RowSpanSelectionMode BOTH
```
    when a cell is clicked on, selects any cells in any other columns which are at least partially spanned by the clicked cell
    If this enumerated value is used in a Component XML file or server-side DataSource descriptor (.ds.xml file), use the value "both".
  - OUTERSPAN
```
public static final RowSpanSelectionMode OUTERSPAN
```
    behaves like "forward", except as though the cell in the first column was clicked instead. If the largest row spans are in the first column and all cells in subsequent columns do not extend out of the first cell's span, this creates a row-like selection model where the span of the left-most cell defines the "row" of cells being selected.
    If this enumerated value is used in a Component XML file or server-side DataSource descriptor (.ds.xml file), use the value "outerSpan".
- Method Detail
  - values
```
public static RowSpanSelectionMode[] values()
```
    Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:
```
for (RowSpanSelectionMode c : RowSpanSelectionMode.values())
    System.out.println(c);
```
    Returns:
    
    an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
  - valueOf
```
public static RowSpanSelectionMode valueOf(java.lang.String name)
```
    Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
    
    Parameters:
    
    name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
    
    Returns:
    
    the enum constant with the specified name
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
    
    java.lang.NullPointerException - if the argument is null
  - getValue
```
public java.lang.String getValue()
```
    Specified by:
    
    getValue in interface ValueEnum
