allowFiltering affects the behavior of showCheckbox - children not selected when parents selected

Question

When "showCheckBox" is set to "true", it is expected that when a parent is selected, all children will be automatically selected and vice-versa. This works fine.

However this stops being true when "allowFiltering" on the control is set to "true". In this situation, selecting a parent item does not select the children items.

Can you please provide some guidance in this case. Thanks

Hi Cosmin,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. We have
already considered this requirement as a feature request on our end. Support
for this feature will be included in any one of our upcoming releases.
Generally, we will plan any feature implementation based on customer request
count, feature rank, and wish list plan for some feature. Please,
track the following feedback link to know the status of this feature
implementation. https://www.syncfusion.com/feedback/19874/support-for-autocheck-functionality-when-enabling-the-filtering-in-dropdowntree
We
appreciate your patience.Regards,Indhumathy
