Row selection highlight not working when grouped

[Vikram]

Hi,

 

https://stackblitz.com/edit/react-gmfcy6-5rknaj

In above example I'm using grouping and row selection as well.
Issue is: row selection is not working when grouped. IF you remove grouping `unit in stock` and click on any row it will immediately highlight selected row.

 

Thanks
Vikram E.

Hello, Vikram,

We have a GitHub discussion logged for this.

We also made an example showcasing how it can be done with the current version:

https://github.com/telerik/kendo-react/issues/500 (the example from Ina)

I hope this is helpful.

Hi Stefan,

Seems like you've misunderstood. I'm not worried about persistence.
My Issue is with row selection (onClick of a row) highlight with is not working when grouped.

When not grouped, OnClick of a row I'm selecting a row (& highlighting it);
This row selection and highlighting isn't working when any column is grouped.

Hello, Vikram,

The issue is ultimately the same.

When the records are grouped, the data collection is completely new (new reference), which means that the selected field gets removed during the grouping process.

This is why we have to use the approach shown in the GitHub issue to re-apply the selection state to the records after the data is processed.
