Allow only single checkbox to be checked at a time

[jeff]

Simple in jQuery, but I haven't figured out to only allow one checkbox checked at a time (used to enable editing a specific user): I'm using the following simple jquery to enable/disable buttons:

                                    function onCheck(e) {
                                        if ($('input.checkTreeview').is(':checked')) {
                                              $('#addUserButton').attr('disabled', 'disabled');
                                              $('#modifyUserButton').attr('disabled', false);
                                         } else {
                                              $('#addUserButton').attr('disabled', false);
                                              $('#modifyUserButton').attr('disabled', 'disabled');
                                          }
                                    }

Anything I can do here to allow only one checkbox checked at a time?

Hello Jeff,

See this Dojo snippet for a way to show only one checked checkbox.

Hi Alex,
Thank you for the response, but when I go to the dojo, I'm getting "failed to load snippet", etc.. Please feel free to paste here for the interim, thank you!

Nevermind.. Local network "issues". Anyways, worked lovely, exactly what I was after, thank you!

Hi,

Are you sure this solution still works ? I'm able to lock one single leaf selection at a time, but nodes refuses to be checked because the algorithm uncheck all others checkboxes, so automatically the node gets unchecked.

Hello  Jean-Marc,

I took the example provided by my colleague Alex and updated it to the latest version of Kendo UI(2016.3.1118) and it is working as expected:

Let me know if additional assistance is needed on this matter.

I think this should be added as a configuration option under checkboxes.  Maybe something called "singleSelect", that is a boolean.

Hi Jonathan,

I would suggest you to submit the issue in the Kendo UI Feedback Portal. Depending on the popularity it gain from the comunity, it could be considered for future implementation.
