With Angular  DropDownTreeComponent when [allowFiltering]="true" and autoCheck is true then the autoCheck feature does not work.

Hi Jeremy, 

 

Greetings from Syncfusion support. 

 

We would like to let you know that if both the autoCheck and allowFiltering properties are enabled, the auto-check feature will not work with filtering. We cannot synchronize the parent and child relationship during filtering due to sibling nodes that are not rendered. This is the Dropdown Tree component's default behavior.

Please let us know, if you need any further assistance.

Shameer,

Thats a shame. Perhaps I can wire up a textbox above the treegrid to filter it manually.

Hi Jeremy Carter,  

 

Sorry for the inconvenience. 

 

As mentioned in our previous update, the auto-check feature will not work with filtering. This is the default behaviour of DropdownTree component. However, currently we are checking the feasibility of achieve your requirement at component level. We will update the validation details within two business days on 19^th November 2020. 

 

We appreciate your patience.
