🧩 Extension Methods

gvw.SelectRowByValue("Id", 10); // Selects row with Id = 10 int? year = gvw.GetFocusedCellValue<int>("Year"); // Reads cell from focused row var row = gvw.GetFocusedRow<MyRow>(); // Safely casts focused row gvw.ScrollToFocusedRow(); // Scroll to focused row gvw.RefreshCurrentRow(); // Redraw current row gvw.ClearSelectionSafe(); // Clears selection gvw.FocusFirstRow(); // Focus top gvw.FocusLastRow(); // Focus bottom
