GridViewCheckBoxColumn CellTemplate Problem

[ss]

I want to display checkbox with text next to each other. But the solution below does not work. Only Checkbox is displayed. What is wrong?

<telerik:GridViewCheckBoxColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding IsChecked, Mode=TwoWay, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}" IsReadOnlyBinding="{Binding Unavailable}" EditTriggers="CellClick"  Header="Check" Width="Auto">
                                <telerik:GridViewCheckBoxColumn.CellTemplate>
                                    <DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type views:ItemList}">
                                        <Grid>
                                            <CheckBox IsChecked="{Binding IsChecked}" IsEnabled="{Binding Unavailable, Converter={StaticResource InverseBooleanConverter}}" Command="{.....}, Path=Data}"
                                                      CommandParameter="{...}">
                                                <CheckBox.Content>
                                                    <TextBlock Text="{Binding Status, Mode=TwoWay, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}" TextAlignment="Right"></TextBlock>
                                                </CheckBox.Content>

                                            </CheckBox>

                                        </Grid>

                                    </DataTemplate>

Hi,

Thank you for the code snippet.

The GridViewCheckBoxColumn doesn't support the CellTemplate attached property, since its expected to contain only a CheckBox.

One way to achieve the desired behavior is to replace the GridViewCheckBoxColumn with GridViewDataColumn and define the cell template you pointed.

Another approach would be to create a custom GridViewCheckBoxColumn and override its CreateCellElement and CreateCellEditElement methods. You can find more information in the Create Custom Column Editor article.

Attached, you can find a sample project which demonstrates the first approach. Please, review it and let me know if it delivered the desired result.
