VisibleOnScreen is TRUE when row in grid control is not visible (need scrolling to view row)

Question

I have a grid control with 100 rows. The grid control is placed in a small window where only 10 rows are visible with need to scroll up/down to see the desired row.
&nbsp;
Both 'Visible' &amp; 'VisibleOnScreen' are TRUE even when the desired row is last in grid while viewing the top 10 rows. I am required to do a right-click to open a context menu on desired row.
&nbsp;
How should I proceed to check if row is truly visible else scroll till visible?
&nbsp;

Hi,
&nbsp;
&gt; I am using DevExpress WPF GridControl.
I would recommend to check in the Object Browser if native .MakeRowVisible() method is accessible (it should be) and use it (like recommended, for example, here: https://www.devexpress.com/Support/Center/Question/Details/T110580/how-to-make-grid-scroll-to-a-row-in-code)

'GridObject.ClickRowIndicator(UnitRowIndex - 1) 'Replaced by the following
GridObject.View.ScrollIntoView(UnitRowIndex - 1)
Thanks for the tip. Using the native code works (finally a green tick).

UnitRowIndex = FindGridRowIndexByValue(GridObject, "Unit", UnitID)
Set UnitRowObject =GetObjectRowByIndex(GridObject, UnitRowIndex)
I can get the row index from the grid. With this, I could use GridObject.ClickRowIndicator to scroll to desired row with help from stated. (ref: https://community.smartbear.com/t5/TestComplete-Desktop-Testing/How-to-click-the-control-which-is-not-visible-on-screen/m-p/123740).
&nbsp;
However, the row indicator is HIDDEN in my grid thus ClickRowIndicator call will give me the error: 'There was an attempt to perform an action at point (0, 0) which is transparent or out of the window bounds.'.
&nbsp;
Is there any alternative to ClickRowIndicator?
BTW, I am using DevExpress WPF GridControl.
