How to select a node in a Dataview

[wom75]

I'm trying to programmaticly select an item in a DV. I see the dataview.select() method in the API, but after passing it a css selector, number, etc... it doesn't seem to fire the selectionChanged or any other event of the Dataview.

I'm trying to select a particular row in the table that my Dataview is rendering. I've also tried an Ext.get() for the id of the row after the DV is rendered, but that doesn't seem to work either.

Anyone have any ideas?!

Ultimately I want to highlight the row that was just added to the table. Also tried creating a record and adding that to the store to update the DV, but the store.add() always throws an error when adding a record.

Thanks allot...

I do like this (currentFileId is the id of selected node):

			var el = Ext.get('cms-img-chooser-img-'+this.currentFileId)
			this.view.select(el)

my data view template like this:

		this.thumbTemplate = new Ext.XTemplate(
				'<tpl for=".">',
				'<div class="thumb-wrap" id="cms-img-chooser-img-{id}">',
				'<div class="thumb"><img src="{thumbnail_url}" title="{title}"></div>',
				'<span>{shortName}</span></div>',
				'</tpl>',
				'<div class="x-clear"></div>');

myDataView.select(0) works perfectly for me. Selects node zero, fires the events, and everything kicks off to display details.

Just to confirm, this still works in ExtJS 6.5.3

myDataView.select(index)
