Disable row selection

[Jurjen Ladenius]

Hi,

I wish to disable the row selection checkbox for rows based on content criteria.
I'm binding with an observable collection of objects that implement INotifyPropertyChanged.
Let's say that each object has a CanSelect boolean property.
What is the best way to disable the checkbox?

I've tried:

private

 

 

void myGrid_RowLoaded(object sender, Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridView.RowLoadedEventArgs e) {
    var theObject = e.DataElement as TheObject;
    if (theObject != null)
    {
        e.Row.Cells[0].IsEnabled = theObject.CanSelect;
    }
}

This doesn't work, since I can select disabled checkboxes, because I can select the row by clicking it.

Kind regards,

Jurjen

Hello Jurjen Ladenius,

Why not setting the whole row to be disabled?

e.Row.IsEnabled = false;

That works quite well, but this has visual effects and all child controls get disabled, even when they've been explicitly enabled in the same routine.
I have some RadButtons in the grid that need to be enabled (opens a detail window)... Any suggestion?

Hello Jurjen Ladenius,

As an alternative you can subscribe to the SelectionChanging event of RadGridView and check the CanSelect property there. Cancel the event if the row should not be selected.

This gives me exactly the wanted functionality. Thanks!
