Angular ui-grid double click row to open pop-up for editing a row

I've used Aquiles solution and reduced scopes just to appSCope, see here.

I've rewrite code to showInfo becomes to $scope:

$scope.showInfo = function(row) {
    var modalInstance = $modal.open({
      controller: 'InfoController',
      templateUrl: 'ngTemplate/infoPopup.html',
      resolve: {
        selectedRow: function () {                    
            return row.entity;
        }
      }
   });

   modalInstance.result.then(function (selectedItem) {
     $log.log('modal selected Row: ' + selectedItem);
   }, function () {
     $log.info('Modal dismissed at: ' + new Date());
  });
}

At gridOptions just used appScope:

$scope.gridOptions = {

   showFooter: true,
   enableSorting: true,
   multiSelect: false,
   enableFiltering: true,     
   enableRowSelection: true, 
   enableSelectAll: false,
   enableRowHeaderSelection: false,
   selectionRowHeaderWidth: 35,  
   noUnselect: true,
   enableGridMenu: true,
   columnDefs: [{displayName:'Name',field:'name'},{displayName:'Gender',field:'gender'},{displayName:'Company',field:'company'}],
   rowTemplate: "<div ng-dblclick=\"grid.appScope.showInfo(row)\" ng-repeat=\"(colRenderIndex, col) in colContainer.renderedColumns track by col.colDef.name\" class=\"ui-grid-cell\" ng-class=\"{ 'ui-grid-row-header-cell': col.isRowHeader }\" ui-grid-cell></div>"
};

Too, I added columnDefs to show that rowTemplate don't interfere with grid rendering.

Well, my question was answered at Github:

https://github.com/angular-ui/ng-grid/issues/2228#issuecomment-71912850

My mistake was not to use external-scopes, and try to solve the problem with ng-dblclick only.

The code should be like this:

At the Controller:

$scope.gridHandlers = { 

    onDblClick : function(row) {
        var url = '//google.com';
        $window.open(url, "_blank", "height=600,width=800,toolbar=no,location=no,menubar=no,titlebar=no");
   }
}

$scope.myGridOptions = {
    showFooter: false,
    enableSorting: true,
    multiSelect: false,
    enableFiltering: true,     
    enableRowSelection: true, 
    enableSelectAll: false,
    enableRowHeaderSelection: false,  
    enableGridMenu: true,
    noUnselect: true,
    onRegisterApi: function (gridApi){
        $scope.gridApi = gridApi;
    },
    rowTemplate: "<div ng-dblclick=\"getExternalScopes().onDblClick(row)\" ng-repeat=\"(colRenderIndex, col) in colContainer.renderedColumns track by col.colDef.name\" class=\"ui-grid-cell\" ng-class=\"{ 'ui-grid-row-header-cell': col.isRowHeader }\" ui-grid-cell ></div>"            

}

At the View:

<div id="myGrid" ui-grid="myGridOptions" ui-grid-selection ui-grid-resize-columns class="gridTable" external-scopes="gridHandlers"></div>

Update for ui-grid v3.0.0-rc.21:

Considering that externalScopes is no longer supported, and now appScopeProvider rules.

In the view:

<div id="myGrid" ui-grid="myGridOptions" ui-grid-selection ui-grid-resize-columns class="gridTable" ></div>

In the controller:

$scope.myGridOptions = {
    showFooter: false,
    enableSorting: true,
    multiSelect: false,
    enableFiltering: true,     
    enableRowSelection: true, 
    enableSelectAll: false,
    enableRowHeaderSelection: false,  
    enableGridMenu: true,
    noUnselect: true,
    onRegisterApi: function (gridApi){
       $scope.gridApi = gridApi;
    },
    appScopeProvider: { 
        onDblClick : function(row) {
           var url = '//google.com';
           $window.open(url, "_blank", "height=600,width=800,toolbar=no,location=no,menubar=no,titlebar=no");
         }
    },
    rowTemplate: "<div ng-dblclick=\"grid.appScope.onDblClick(row)\" ng-repeat=\"(colRenderIndex, col) in colContainer.renderedColumns track by col.colDef.name\" class=\"ui-grid-cell\" ng-class=\"{ 'ui-grid-row-header-cell': col.isRowHeader }\" ui-grid-cell ></div>"
}

Here is my example at Plnkr using a modal popup (done with angular-ui-bootstrap):

Note that if you use a newer version of ui-bootstrap, you will need to rename $modal in the above plunkr to $uibModal.
