How to lock a checkbox in an editable column?

[Matthew Brown]

I'm looking for a way to disable checkboxes for specific rows in an editable CheckBoxColumn. This solution makes the checkbox un-editable but it requires the user to click the box twice to toggle it when it is editable.

Is there a way to disable the checkboxes without requiring the addition click?

Hi Matthew B,

 

Thank you for using Syncfusion controls.

 

You can achieve your requirement, by setting syncfusion:FocusManagerHelper.Focused element as true like below, 

Xaml: 

<syncfusion:GridTemplateColumn MappingName="Conformed"> 

    <syncfusion:GridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate> 

        <DataTemplate> 

            <CheckBox syncfusion:FocusManagerHelper.FocusedElement="True" IsChecked="{Binding Conformed}"   HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center" 

                        IsEnabled="{Binding Conformed, Converter={StaticResource checkBoxConverter}}" /> 

        </DataTemplate> 

    </syncfusion:GridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate> 

    <syncfusion:GridTemplateColumn.CellStyle> 

        <Style TargetType="syncfusion:GridCell"> 

            <Setter Property="Background" Value="{Binding Conformed, Converter = {StaticResource cellbackgroundconverter}}" /> 

        </Style> 

    </syncfusion:GridTemplateColumn.CellStyle> 

</syncfusion:GridTemplateColumn> 

We have modified the sample for the same,
