Checkbox template does not work after Kendo update

[Patrik]

Hello,

after upgrading to the most recent Kendo UI version 2017.2.621,  with defined template no longer respond to click - they do not show check mark they fire any events.

You can replicate mentioned behavior in here https://dojo.telerik.com/Uguniw/2 (this is the example code from this page http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/controls/navigation/treeview/how-to/AngularJS/customize-treeview-checkbox-template)

To fix the issue temporarily and verify that it is indeed caused by the upgrading of Kendo, you can lower the included version in the upper left corner to '2017 R1 SP1' and see that the checkboxes will start working again.

 

Could you help me with this issue?

Best regards,
Patrik

Hello Patrik,

This is a known issue, which is already fixed. The fix should be available in the next release (due mid September). Until the release, as a temporary workaround, you can modify the template as shown in this modified dojo example.

Hello Ivan,

Thank you for the reply. I could not find the issue before, but it is good to know that the fix is coming soon.
In the meantime, I fixed it by applying following CSS:

.k-checkbox-wrapper input {
    position:absolute;
    width: 14px;
    height: 14px;
    z-index: 20;
    cursor: pointer;
}
