Is it possible to not allow row selection?

[Brian]

I'd like to not allow a row to be selected in my gridview.  Is this possible?  Basically, I don't want any selected row background color so it appears that no row is selected.  It's fine if the row is actually selected as long as it doesn't appear to be.

Is this possible?
Tks.

Hi Brian,

 

You may set the CanUserSelect property of RadGridView to False, which will disable the selection to the end-user. However you may still manipulate the selection in code-behind through examining the selected item/s.
You may read more about RadGridView's Selection mechanism in our online documentation, please follow this link.

All the best,

Ok, well that got me part of the way there.  However, the first row in my grid still appears to be selected.  Here is how my grid is defined:

<telerik:RadGridView  Name="dgPatientVisitList" ItemsSource="{Binding PatientVisitList}" AutoGenerateColumns="False"
 SelectedItem="{Binding SelectedVisit, Mode=TwoWay}" ShowGroupPanel="False" IsReadOnly="True" RowIndicatorVisibility="Collapsed" CanUserSelect="False" AutoExpandGroups="True" CanUserFreezeColumns="False" ColumnWidth="Auto"  RowLoaded="dgPatientVisitList_RowLoaded">

If I remove the 'SelectedItem' property, it makes no difference.  See the attached screen show for what I'm referring to.

Hello Brian,

 

Since the SelectedItem (which is the data item) is not synchronized with the curren item the first row should not be selected. You should set the IsSynchronizedCurrentItem property of RadGridView to False should resolve the issue.
