Prevent row selection on row click. Allow only GridClientSelectColumn

[Mac P]

Hello,

I have one simple one but having hard time to find a way to do it.
I want to prevent users to select row on client side with row click  on any other cell click but  allow only GridClientSelectColumn to select and unselect the row.

 

AllowMultiRowSelection

 

 

="true" on the grid

 

 

 

I have these settings on the mastertableview

 

<

 

 

ClientSettings AllowColumnsReorder="True">

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

<Selecting AllowRowSelect="true" UseClientSelectColumnOnly="true" />

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

<Resizing AllowColumnResize="true" />

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

</ClientSettings>

Please guide me what should i do

Daniel,
Thanks for your reply. I think there is some confusion regarding my question. Sorry about that.
What i need is to disable row selection functionality on row click or any other cells click. I want row selection to occur only when user checks the ClientGridSelectColumn.

The reason is that the check box allows users to perform an action based on their selection. However there is another button column on the grid and clicking that selects the row since i have allowrowselect to true and hence the checkbox is checked even when i dont want it to be.
