Checkbox state in ejs-Grid column is lost on edititng a new row

[Arun Berlin]

I'm using the ejs grid in batch mode and applied the following selection settings :

selectionSettings = { type: 'Multiple', mode: 'Cell' , cellSelectionMode: 'Box', persistSelection: true}

My requirements are :

1. No rows should be selected automatically (Allow only manual selection)
2. Row selection only by using checkbox click.
3. State persistence of checkbox(s) during the Edit ,Add ,Delete  operation.

Thank you

Hi Arun Berlin,

Thanks for contacting Syncfusion support.

Query#1: No rows should be selected automatically (Allow only manual selection) && Query#2: Row selection only by using checkbox click.

To select/deselect the rows through checkboxes we need to set the selectionSettings.mode as “Row”. Also, You can achieve your requirement by setting the “selectionSettings.checkboxOnly” as true.

Query#3: State persistence of checkbox(s) during the Edit ,Add ,Delete  operation.

For Batch editing, we can persist the row selection only on the “Edit” action using the “selectionSettings.persistSelection” property. We could not persist the selection on and Delete actions.

Please get back to us if you need further assistance on this.

Thank you for the response.

 I've tried the below 'selection settings', but still it is not working as expected.

selectionSettings = { type: 'Multiple', mode: 'Row' , persistSelection: true, checkboxOnly : true};

1. The checkboxes gets cleared on addition of new row and then the new row gets checked.
2. The checkboxes gets cleared on double click 'Edit' event on a different row and only the focused row gets checked.
3. The checkbox gets checked even with click on a different cell of the row.

Hi Arun Berlin,

Query#1: The checkboxes gets cleared on addition of new row and then the new row gets checked.

The selection will not be persisted while adding new records and deleting in batch edit mode. The rows selection will be persisted in the edit action as we updated in our previous update.

Query#2: The checkboxes gets cleared on double click 'Edit' event on a different row and only the focused row gets checked && The checkbox gets checked even with click on a different cell of the row

The reported scenario is working fine at our end. The checkbox is getting selected only when clicking the checkbox. Please refer to the below sample link for more information.
