Avoid selecting checkbox when click on any row in kendo react grid

[seenu]

Hi Team,

I am working on the grid with checkbox using the sample provided here https://www.telerik.com/kendo-react-ui/components/grid/selection/

its working as stated in the example, but one question, is there way to avoid row checkbox to not checked when we click on any other column in the grid(other than checkbox column).

for example, in below screen i am clicking on product name(2nd) column and entire row is selected and checkbox is checked. i don't want checkbox to be checked when i click on other columns.

Hello,

You can prevent the selection of the checkboxes when clicking on a column by changing the enabled setting to false. You can take a look at the following example:

Hello,

Just to give you a quick update, after some research on our part we reached the conclusion that this approach is an issue in the component and we logged it as such here. This is because setting enabled to false should stop all selection.

Instead of setting the enabled setting to false you can currently check if the selected item is a checkbox and if it is indeed a checkbox you can update the state like in the following example:
