Cell click event for Unbound columns

[Amjad]

Hi, I am a newbie with telerik controls. I added an unbounded control to my grid. Now I implemented the cellclick event of the grid and trying to get whether the user has clicked on the cell of unbounded column or any other column. For the rest of the columns it is working fine, but it doesn't notify when the user click on the cell of unbounded column. Here is the code, I tried
 private void MasterTemplate_CellClick(object sender, GridViewCellEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.Column.Name == "IS_INCLUDED")   // My unbounded column Name is IS_INCLUDED
            {
                MessageBox.Show(e.Row.Cells["IS_INCLUDED"].Value.ToString());
            }
            else
                MessageBox.Show(e.Column.Name);
        }

Any help would be appreciated in this regard.

Hello Amjad,

Thank you for writing.

Indeed I can confirm that the event is not fired in the described scenario. I added this issue in our public issue tracking system and it will be addressed in one of the next releases. Meanwhile, you can work around this case by inheriting RadGridView and adding the following logic:

public class MyRadGridView : RadGridView
{
    public override string ThemeClassName
    {
        get
        {
            return typeof(RadGridView).FullName;
        }
        set
        {
            base.ThemeClassName = value;
        }
    }

    protected override void OnMouseClick(MouseEventArgs e)
    {
        base.OnMouseClick(e);

        RadElement element = this.ElementTree.GetElementAtPoint(e.Location);
        RadCheckBoxEditorElement checkBoxEditorElement = element as RadCheckBoxEditorElement;

        if (checkBoxEditorElement != null)
        {
            GridCellElement cell = checkBoxEditorElement.Parent as GridCellElement;
            this.MasterTemplate.EventDispatcher.RaiseEvent<GridViewCellEventArgs>(EventDispatcher.CellClick, cell,
                new GridViewCellEventArgs(cell.RowInfo, cell.ColumnInfo, this.GridViewElement.ActiveEditor));

            this.MasterTemplate.EventDispatcher.ResumeEvent(EventDispatcher.CellClick);
        }
    }
}
