This is the first time I am using kendo listview and I am wondering how to get the selected Item from the listView ! I mean how can I change the listView to selectable and then how can I recuperate the selected Item ? Can anyone help me ?

Hi Hiba,

Currently the ListView component does not support selection functionality. We have this feature in mind and will implement it in the near future.

Please excuse us for any inconvenience caused.

Hi Vedad,

The selection functionality isn't currently planned for the upcoming releases and we can't provide any specific timeline on the addition of the selection functionality. Please follow the feature request thread for any further updates on this matter:

Hi Yanmario,

thank you for your reply.

I am little disappointed that almost year after hiba's question such a simple feature still didn't even came to serious plans. 

I was able to found a workaround for this, but I always prefer built in solutions as they are cleaner.

I hope this will come higher on the list soon.

All the best,

Vedad
