# Range Handle

When working with cell selection, it can be useful to have a handle inside the last cell to enable the size of the current range to be adjusted.

## Enabling the Range Handle

To enable the Range Handle, set `cellSelection.handle` to `{ mode: 'range' }` in the `gridOptions`.

```ts
<ag-grid-angular
    [cellSelection]="cellSelection"
    /* other grid options ... */ />

this.cellSelection = {
    handle: {
        mode: 'range',
    }
};
```

The example below demonstrates simple range selection with a range handle.

#### Range Handle

```ts
import { Component } from "@angular/core";
import { HttpClient } from "@angular/common/http";
import { AgGridAngular } from "ag-grid-angular";
import {
  CellSelectionOptions,
  ClientSideRowModelModule,
  ColDef,
  ColGroupDef,
  GridApi,
  GridOptions,
  GridReadyEvent,
  ModuleRegistry,
  enableDevValidations,
} from "ag-grid-community";
import { CellSelectionModule } from "ag-grid-enterprise";
if (process.env.NODE_ENV !== "production") {
  enableDevValidations();
}

ModuleRegistry.registerModules([ClientSideRowModelModule, CellSelectionModule]);
import { IOlympicData } from "./interfaces";

@Component({
  selector: "my-app",
  standalone: true,
  imports: [AgGridAngular],
  template: `<ag-grid-angular
    style="width: 100%; height: 100%;"
    [columnDefs]="columnDefs"
    [defaultColDef]="defaultColDef"
    [cellSelection]="cellSelection"
    [rowData]="rowData"
    (gridReady)="onGridReady($event)"
  /> `,
})
export class AppComponent {
  columnDefs: ColDef[] = [
    { field: "athlete", minWidth: 150 },
    { field: "age", maxWidth: 90 },
    { field: "country", minWidth: 150 },
    { field: "year", maxWidth: 90 },
    { field: "date", minWidth: 150 },
    { field: "sport", minWidth: 150 },
    { field: "gold" },
    { field: "silver" },
    { field: "bronze" },
    { field: "total" },
  ];
  defaultColDef: ColDef = {
    flex: 1,
    minWidth: 100,
  };
  cellSelection: boolean | CellSelectionOptions = { handle: { mode: "range" } };
  rowData!: IOlympicData[];

  constructor(private http: HttpClient) {}

  onGridReady(params: GridReadyEvent<IOlympicData>) {
    this.http
      .get<
        IOlympicData[]
      >("https://www.ag-grid.com/example-assets/olympic-winners.json")
      .subscribe((data) => (this.rowData = data));
  }
}
```
