is it possible to change the behavior to have the item just selected instead of filtered to give the ability to the user to select the value from the whole datasource?
now the user just see limited set of data according to the parent selection
I am not sure I completely understand the scenario. Could you please elaborate a bit more what is the requirement? If you need to dynamically change the selection, you can use the DropDownList select method.
yes i did exactly the way to select the value at the corresponding ddl programmatically & firing the change event to let grid вы know about this change, the question was just to have it out of the box like we have cascade

Hello Aleksandr, Could you please share your general page set up so we have more info on what exactly you have? For example, do you have a single DropDownList that filters the Grid data when a ddl item is selected?
From your last reply, it seems like you implemented the logic to filter the Grid based on the DDL selection. Could you please elaborate on why you need a programmatic selection of the item and what user action would trigger the programmatic selection of the DDL?
When using the Cascade functionality of the Dropdown as a reference, does your feature request mean you want a CascadeFrom or similar property in the Grid, where you can pass a DropDownList id, or do you have something else in mind?
it was two linked lists for inline editing grid row, but my request could be removed, I changed a little bit server models and returned to the initial cascade implementation (we have created state to country cascade (yes state to a country, not wise versa), and needed to show all without states if the user has selected the state which was not linked to the country )
