The grid has select all check box column in the radgridview in which the user able to “select” and “Unselect” thorough the header checkbox but when sorting is applied on the checkbox header cell ,the "Select All" feature works in a odd way (not all rows are getting selected /unselected). Is there any workaround for this?

There is a good KB Article here on adding a checkbox to a RadGridView header and using it as a check all / uncheck all.
Hope that helps

thanks for posting the link. The select / unselect all works fine, but now if I try and check / uncheck a single item I get a null Reference exception at this block of code in CheckBoxHeaderCell.cs. The offending line is '
this.GridViewElement.EditorManager.EndEdit();'. Here is the stack Trace:

As far as I can tell, you can now remove the entire GridControl_ValueChanged event handler from the demo code and it should work fine.
Hope that helps, but let me know if you need more information

Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention. The KB article will be updated to work with latest Q1 2011 release. However, I would like just to add that actually ValueChanged event should not be removed, because it implements the process of unchecking the header cell, if one of the checked rows is manually unchecked. Rather than removing the event, I would suggest that you change the way this event is initialized. Just use the Attached and Detached methods instead of OnLoaded:
public class CheckBoxHeaderCell : GridHeaderCellElement { //...... public override void Attach(GridViewColumn data, object context) { base.Attach(data, context); this.GridControl.ValueChanged += new EventHandler(GridControl_ValueChanged); } public override void Detach() { base.Detach(); this.GridControl.ValueChanged -= GridControl_ValueChanged; } //...... }I am also attaching the modified projects to this message for your convenience. Let me know if you have any additional questions.

Hi,
I have a three level gridview. Each level has a checkbox column with a header check box in the header row and checkboxes in datarows.
I have used the following code from Teleirk for checking or unchecking the records in the three levels gridview.
While trying to expand the third level gridview, it is throwing an exception.
If I exclude the GridControl_ValueChanged, Attach and Detach events the code is working fine, but I am unable to check or uncheck the header checkbox if any of the checkboxes in the datarows are checked or unchecked. Any help is appreciated.

Thank you for writing.
If you are using the latest version of the controls you can simply set the EnableHeaderCheckBox property of your boolean column. The custom solution as demonstrated here is suitable for older versions. The additional snippet for checking parent rows and child templates is working well on my end.
It is possible to experience the reported behavior if you mix the custom implementation of the header cells with newer assemblies. If that is the case please use the EnableHeaderCheckBox property. If you keep experiencing the issue please open a support ticket and send us your project.
I hope this helps. Should you have further questions please do not hesitate to write back.

getting null reference exception in if (row != this.RowInfo && row.Cells[this.ColumnIndex].Value == null || !(bool)row.Cells[this.ColumnIndex].Value)
when select a check box
Hello, Venkat,
Could you please specify what is the Telerik UI for WinForms version that you are currently using? Are you using the EnableHeaderCheckBox property of the column or the custom solution from the previously referred KB article?Could you please specify the exact steps how to reproduce the problem you are facing? Once we replicate the issue locally, we would be able to make an adequate analysis of the precise case and think about a suitable solution. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
I am looking forward to your reply.

Hi Dess,
I'm using GridColumncheckbox in our project in 3 levels (Header/master,Parent,child).
I should satisfy following conditions:
1.when header check-box clicked all grid should get selected(both child and parent) and hen unchecked is should get unchecked.
2.when individual parent row get selects the child rows should selected.
3.when all child rows of the parent selected that particular parent should get select.
My Issue: it is with 1st case when I check master checkbox parent rows are getting selected but also child rows are getting selected only when the parent row is collapsed.
Can you help with this issue?
Note:I'm not using customheader checbox.And i'm handling HeaderCellToggleStateChanged event also.
Thanks,

Hello, Akarsh,
By default, the header checkbox is expected to toggle the rows belonging to the respective hierarchy level. The rest of the rows which are a part of other hierarchy templates have to be managed programmatically.
Indeed, handling the HeaderCellToggleStateChanged event is the appropriate place to do it.
Please refer to the following code snippet demonstrating how to update the child levels:
List<GridTableElement> childTableElements = null;
private void radGridView1_ViewCellFormatting(object sender, CellFormattingEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Row.HierarchyLevel > 0 && e.Column.Name == "Discontinued")
{
if (childTableElements == null)
{
childTableElements = new List<GridTableElement>();
}
if (!childTableElements.Contains(e.CellElement.TableElement))
{
childTableElements.Add(e.CellElement.TableElement);
}
}
}
private void radGridView1_HeaderCellToggleStateChanged(object sender, GridViewHeaderCellEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Row.HierarchyLevel == 0)
{
foreach (GridViewDataRowInfo row in this.radGridView1.Rows)
{
foreach (GridViewRowInfo childRow in row.ChildRows)
{
childRow.Cells["Discontinued"].Value = e.State == ToggleState.On ? true : false;
}
}
}
if (childTableElements != null)
{
foreach (GridTableElement t in childTableElements)
{
t.Update(GridUINotifyAction.DataChanged);
}
}
}I hope this information helps. If you need any further assistance please don't hesitate to contact me.
