How to check checkbox on dialog template based upon a grid value

Hi

I have a grid with e checkbox column

                        @(Html.EJ().Grid<MyProject.Model.ViewModels.MyViewModel>("MyGrid")
                            .EditSettings(edit =>
                                edit.AllowEditing()
                                .AllowAdding()
                                .AllowDeleting()
                                .EditMode(EditMode.DialogTemplate)
                                .DialogEditorTemplateID("#editTemplate")
                                )
                            .AllowFiltering()
                            .AllowPaging()
                            .AllowSorting()
                            .AllowTextWrap()
                            .Locale("it-IT")
                            .FilterSettings(filter => { filter.FilterType(FilterType.Excel); })
                            .ToolbarSettings(toolbar =>
                            {
                                toolbar.ShowToolbar().ToolbarItems(items =>
                                {
                                    items.AddTool(ToolBarItems.Add);
                                    items.AddTool(ToolBarItems.Edit);
                                    items.AddTool(ToolBarItems.Delete);
                                    items.AddTool(ToolBarItems.Update);
                                    items.AddTool(ToolBarItems.Cancel);
                                });
                            })
                            .Columns(col =>
                            {
                                col.Field("Id").IsPrimaryKey(true).Visible(false).Add();
                                col.Field("Name").HeaderText("Name").HeaderTextAlign(TextAlign.Center).EditType(EditingType.String).ValidationRules(v => v.AddRule("required", true)).Add();
                                col.Field("Active").HeaderText("Active").TextAlign(TextAlign.Center).HeaderTextAlign(TextAlign.Center).EditType(EditingType.Boolean).Add();
                            })
                        )

I use a dialog template to edit data

<script type="text/template" id="editTemplate">
    <table cellspacing="10">
        <tr>
            <td style="text-align:right;">Name:</td>
            <td style="text-align:left;">
                <input id="Name" name="Name" value="{{: Name}}" class="e-field e-ejinputtext valid" style="width:200px;" />
            </td>
            <td>
                <input id="Active" name="Active" value="{{: Active}}" type="checkbox" class="e-field e-ejcheckbox valid" style="width:20px;" />
            </td>
            <td style="text-align:left;">Active</td>
        </tr>
    </table>
</script>

In execution, when i open the dialog to edit data the checkbox is never checked, even if the column in the grid is checked.
What am i doing wrong?
Thank you

Hi Fabrizio, 

Thanks for contacting Syncfusion support.

To display the checkbox while editing, please render the template as follows,




<script type="text/template" id="editTemplate">

    <table cellspacing="10">

        <tr>

            <td style="text-align:right;">Name:</td>

            <td style="text-align:left;">

                <input id="Name" name="Name" value="{{: Name}}" class="e-field e-ejinputtext valid" style="width:200px;" />

            </td>

            <td>

                {{if Active}}

                <input id="Active" name="Active" type="checkbox" class="e-field e-ejcheckbox valid" checked="checkbox" style="width:20px;" />

                {{else}}

                <input id="Active" name="Active" type="checkbox" class="e-field e-ejcheckbox valid" style="width:20px;" />

                {{/if}}

            </td>

            <td style="text-align:left;">Active</td>

        </tr>

    </table>

</script>




Please refer to the following sample,

you can use "checked" instead of "value ". It worked for me

<input id="Active" name="Active" value="{{: Active}}" type="checkbox" class="e-field e-ejcheckbox valid" style="width:20px;" />

<input id="Active" name="Active" checked="{{: Active}}" type="checkbox" class="e-field e-ejcheckbox valid" style="width:20px;" />
