How to keep checkbox column in edit mode?

[kj]

Hi,

My RadGridView is binding to a DataTable, and one column is boolean checkbox. I have to click the chechbox for several times to enable to edit it, how do I solve this problem?

<Window x:Class="Window1"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
    Title="Window1" Height="300" Width="300" xmlns:my="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridView">
    <Grid>
        <my:RadGridView Name="RadGridView1" />
    </Grid>
</Window>

Class Window1

    Public Sub New()

        InitializeComponent()


        Dim dt As New System.Data.DataTable
        dt.Columns.Add("hide", GetType(Boolean))
        dt.Columns.Add("highlight", GetType(String))
        dt.Columns(0).DefaultValue = True
        dt.Columns(0).ReadOnly = False

        dt.Columns(1).DefaultValue = "test"
        dt.Columns(1).ReadOnly = True

        Dim row1 As System.Data.DataRow = dt.NewRow
        row1("hide") = True
        row1("highlight") = "A"
        dt.Rows.Add(row1)

        Dim row2 As System.Data.DataRow = dt.NewRow
        row2("hide") = True
        row2("highlight") = "B"
        dt.Rows.Add(row2)
        RadGridView1.ItemsSource = dt
    End Sub
End Class

Hello,

 You can create your own column with desired CellTemplate (in your case CheckBox) or you can use the approach demonstrated in this blog post (override CreateCellElement).
