I appreciate the response. However, what happens when grid1 is sorted differently than grid2?
For example, an item (let's call it "A") might exist at the top of grid1, but in grid2, "A" exists at the bottom (because the user has sorted the columns differently. In this case, setting the verticalScrollPositions the same won't help, because that'll put it at the top of grid2, which is wrong. It should be at the bottom. I basically want to do this: "Set the scroll position in a grid so that the currently selected item is visible."
