I'm trying the Kendo UI Grid for Angular, the current behavior only allows selecting multiple rows by selecting the checkbox itself (otherwise clicking the cell outside of the checkbox, would result in the currently selected rows getting reset.)
I would like to find out if is there a way to change that behavior, so that clicking outside of the checkbox would be handled just as clicking within it.

I've attached the desired behavior:

Hi Rafi,

Thank you for the provided gif.

By default, the Grid rows are selected when the enter row is clicked:

Currently, the supported way of selecting multiple rows is by holding the Ctrl key:

I hope this helps.
