prevent rowselect in hierarchical grid

[Albert Shenker]

I have a grid with a parent/detail table. Clicking on the expand/collaps icon displays/hides the detail column. Everything works fine except, clicking on the parent table row "Selects" it and this is undesirable behavior in my scenario since selecting the row doesn't do anything and isn't used. I tried setting the "Selecting" clientSettings Parameter AllowRowSelect='False", and this prevented the row being selected, however, this also prevents the expand/collapse column from working to display the detail table. Apparently you need to be able to select the parent row to display the child table. Is there a way to prevent the selection of the parent row and still have the expand/collapse column work? If not, is there a way of preventing the selected parent row from being shown as "highlighted". The visual appearance is all I really care about.

Hello Albert,

I am not quite sure about the requirement and also not able to reproduce your issue at my end. Try setting the following CSS inorder to avoid the highlighted color when a row is clickced.
aspx:

<style type="text/css">
    .RadGrid_Default .rgSelectedRow
    {
     background:Transparent!important;
     color:Black !important;
    }
    .RadGrid_Default .rgSelectedRow td
    {
     border-bottom-color:white !important;
    }
</style>

Thanks,
Princy.
