Hello Srinivas,

 In order to achieve your goal, you can predefine the template of GridView's FilteringControl. As you can see from this help article the PART_DistinctValuesList is a listbox that hosts the DisctinctValues for the FilteringControl. So, you can extract the default style, as it is mentioned in the article, then you need to find the PART_DistinctValuesList, you will see that in the listbox's ItemTemplate there is a CheckBox. You can set some height to that CheckBox. Please check the following code snippet:

<ListBox x:Name="PART_DistinctValuesList" ItemsSource="{Binding DistinctValues}"                    ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Auto"

 MaxHeight="100" SelectionMode="Multiple">
<ListBox.ItemTemplate>
    <DataTemplate>
               <CheckBox Content="{Binding ConvertedValue}" Height="50" IsChecked="{Binding IsActive, Mode=TwoWay}" VerticalContentAlignment="Center">
  <telerik:StyleManager.Theme>
     <telerik:Office_BlackTheme/>
  </telerik:StyleManager.Theme>

       </CheckBox>
    </DataTemplate>
</ListBox.ItemTemplate>
<telerik:StyleManager.Theme>
         <telerik:Office_BlackTheme/>
</telerik:StyleManager.Theme>

</ListBox>

Hi Srinivas,


In addition to my previous post, I must point out that my suggested approach is valid for the latest version of our controls. If you are using some of the older versions of the controls you are able to select distinct value by clicking only in the checkbox (not on the entire row). So, in order to make it clear, may I ask you what exactly version of RadControls you are using?
