[Jaroslaw Bazarko]

Hello!

Why in the SfDataGrid control does not have a column to select items ?

I mean a universal column for items selection.

Hi Jarek, 

 

Thank you for contacting Syncfusion support. 

 

We couldn’t understand your requirement clearly. So could you please share some more information about your query as like, 

 

1. When you click the header column, to select the grid cell value of particular column in a grid as like below image,

 

 

2. Whether you want to list the items of GridColumn as like below image,

 

 

This would be more helpful for us to proceed further.

Hello!

I have 20 views with SfDataGrid. All views must have a column the checkbox for selection.

I want to create a universal column for selections for all SfDataGrid in my views.

I would like to create the same column as Telerik's RadGridView.

See the link below:

ttp://docs.telerik.com/devtools/wpf/controls/radgridview/columns/columntypes/column-types-select-column

I know that SfDataGrid has a GridCheckBoxColumn column but I do not want to bind to a model. 

I want the new column datagridselectcolumn to bind this SelectedItems property in SfDataGrid.

Regards, 

Jarek

Hello!

I am very happy with this. In my opinion, the GridSelectionColumn column will make it easier to work with complex applications.

I think the GridSelectionColumn column is a fundamental feature in DataGrid.

Hi Jarek,  

 

We regret to inform you that currently we don’t have a plan to implement the GridSelectionColumn feature in SfDataGrid and we will plan this for any of our upcoming release. Also, we already suggested the KB article for “How to change the CheckBoxColumn values based on row selection” but you have mentioned like this solution not satisfies. Could you please share the reason for why this work around not satisfies you?  

 

Also, we have the SfTreeGrid control and supports the CheckBox selection. It is a data oriented control that displays the self-relational and hierarchical data in tree structure with columns. This control also supports for sorting and programmatic filtering but not supported grouping. 

 

https://help.syncfusion.com/wpf/sftreegrid/node-checkbox#handling-selection-based-on-checkbox-state 

 

you can also load the flat items in SfTreeGrid like SfDataGrid and you can refer the sample from the below location, 

 

Sample: http://www.syncfusion.com/downloads/support/directtrac/general/ze/CheckBoxSelectionDemo1271320.zip 

 

Could you please let us know whether the SfTreeGrid meets your requirement otherwise please share the reason for why you are not satisfying the work around  with SfDataGrid? This would be more helpful for us to proceed further.
