[Solved] How to preserve the state of the rows selected during traversal to other pages

[Sunil Nahar]

Hi,

I am using a GridClientSelectColumn and have a paging on my grid. I need following things on my grid.

1) Multiple selection client-side

2) If i do select all from the header checkbox on page1, it should also select the rows at all other pages.

3) Deselect should deselect only the single row, not all.

4) If i select a single row on page1, and move on to any other page and now when i come back to page1 the row should persist its state.

I would appreciate any help on this.

Thanks,

Sunil Nahar.

Thanks Vlad for such a quick reply. Your solution for the state persistence, worked great. but when i hit the select all checkbox at the header first thing it does not select all the rows in the grid, i mean all the rows of all the pages. And second thing it does not preserve its own state, i mean when i come back to page 1, after selecting all the rows on page 1 and moving on to some other page, it keeps all the rows selected but the header checkbox is still unchecked.

And talking about handling the selection of rows in my edit scenario, how would i achieve that?

I really appreciate your help.

Sunil.

Hi Sunil,

The selection is handled on a per-page basis. If you would like to handle the selection for the whole grid, you can consider removing paging. Additionally, when preserving the state of the selected items, you can also restore the state for the checkbox in the header, when paging.
I hope these suggestions help.

Kind regards,
