Hi again.
Recently I've played around the StringGrids and noticed one weird thing.
There are two quite similar properties:
AutoEdit
description: Whether the Edit mode is automatically entered when a cell is selected
Options/goAlwaysShowEditor
description: Always show editor. If not set, the user has to enter the edit mode by pressing >some character key or F2 key.
And here comes the question: what's the difference between them?
I've also noticed that goAlwaysShowEditor=True overrides behavior of AutoEdit=False.
Anyway thanks.

Both options work only when goEditing option is true.

If the goAlwaysShowEditor option is true, yes, the editor will be always visible, if it is false, the editor is not always visible. You have may not noticed that the editor is visible, change the grid color to something different than the default, then it will be obvious.

If the editor is not always visible and you do a click in a cell that is not selected, the cell becomes focused. If you do a second click AND AutoEdit=true, then the editor becomes visible, I guess is called AutoEdit because you don't have to use the keyboard in order to show the editor. In other words, the AutoEdit works with mouse clicks, it seems from the description that you quoted that the description needs an update.
