How to change the default selection of wxGrid?

Hello,

I found several problem when I use wxPython.

Run a grid demo, the top left cell will be focus,
make a motion of mouse right button on other cell,
this will select a block of cells,then left click
on any cell, the result is strange.

Run a grid demo, use the mouse right button to
resize column size, the size will not change but
show another grid line.

I need a grid like this:

I can make left/right click or motion on any cell,
this will not select the cell, but also get the
row and col. I have implement this by bind a empty
function to EVT_GRID_SELECT_CELL.

When I hold Shift, I can select block with left/right,
as the default behavior of wx.grid. I have try to
bind process to the EVT_GRID_RANGE_SELECT or extend
the GridRangeSelectEvent, but I found this take no effect.

Could you give me some advice on how to change the
default selection behavior of wx.grid?

Best Regards.

Looks like it is just missing a Refresh. Please enter a bug report about this.

I can't duplicate this one.

One way to do it would be to intercept the mouse events from grid.GetGridWindow() and implement the selection yourself.
