5.18.5 (2026-05-08)

in this release, I asked Copilot AI to review all of the old opened issues, it was able to provide fixes for a lot of them (I also used all of my free month credits in the process). However please note that one of these fixes is rather important to be aware as shown below:

⚠️ Warning about the multiSelect option which is now properly enforced

Prior to this release, disabling multiSelect grid option did not really do anything, but it is now properly respected with this new release and will now correctly enforce single-row-only selection. To allow multiple row selection while preventing the currently-active row from being automatically selected during navigation, use selectActiveRow: false instead (keeping multiSelect at its default true).

5.17.0 (2025-10-28)

Thanks to Ben (6pac), we now have a great new plugin Hybrid Selection Model which is a merge of both Cell & Row Selection Models + extra features. This new plugin was created to overcome a restriction in SlickGrid which is that only 1 selection model can be registered at a time, and so with this new Hybrid Selection Model we can now do a Cell & Row Selections in the same grid via this new all-in-one plugin. It also comes with extra new features that are replicating some Excel behaviors, for example after a cell selection is made, you can now use the bottom-right corner (little square) to expand the selection further, you can also use an optional Drag-Fill logic to auto-fill cell values which is also similar to Excel (you can see animated gif in PR #1143 and/or open examples below).🎉 We also just reached 2000 stars ⭐ Thank you!

See 2 new examples for this new Hybrid Selection Model & optional Drag-Fill (similar to Excel for auto-filling cell values while dragging)

• Spreadsheet with drag-fill, hybrid selection model and context menu
• Hybrid (row or column) SelectionModel
