One of the most important features of this grid is its ability to edit multiple rows at a time. To do so, first highlight multiple rows in the following ways:

oCTRL + A will highlight all rows in the grid.

oSHIFT + Arrow Key UP / SHIFT + Arrow Key UP highlights rows one at a time in order

oCTRL + Left Mouse Down highlights rows in an unordered selection

oSHIFT + Left Mouse Down highlights all rows between selections clicked by the mouse

After highlighting the selected rows, to make a global change, use the arrow left and right keys on the keyboard to navigate between columns. Typing the arrow up or arrow down keys will deselect the previous selection as will clicking with the mouse. Once at the desired column, there are two main interfaces to change values:

oText Input:

isc_img4

oSimple Text Input requires typing in the value desired.

isc_img5

Auto-complete Text Input requires typing in the start of the value desired. If the auto-complete suggestion does not satisfy the desired value, continue to type until the desired value is suggested or completely typed.

ocheck-box Input:

check-box Input can be interacted with by pressing the spacebar. This will change the state of the check box between checked and unchecked.

Once the desired value is in the focused cell, to commit the changes and make other changes to the selection of stations, it is required to use the arrow left and right keys to move to another focus.  Alternatively, using the up or down arrow keys, pressing the ENTER key, or clicking with the mouse will also commit the changes made, but deselect the highlighted rows.
