Select all check boxes button

[OfficialCommunity]

How would I go about adding a select all checkboxes header element to a check box column?  I'd settle for a button at this point as well.

Thanks,
Colin

Hi Colin Bowern,

Thank you for your suggestion.

Unfortunately, adding child elements to a header cell element is not possible at this time. We are constantly extending the capabilities of our grid control and we will have in mind such scenarios for the next major release Q3 2007.

All the best,

I think the ability to have a select-all checkbox in the header is one of the important features of  a Grid. I hope you implement this in the next release (Q2)

A 'select all' option on checkbox columns would be ideal, but even a way for us to "hack" it would work.  I've even looked at creating derived column and cell, but don't see a way to specify specialized header cell to use.

Thanks!

Hello Guys,

Thank you for writing.

Currently, RadGridView does not support the described functionality. We will consider adding such functionality in one of the next releases. For the time being, you could implement such functionality by using custom context menu for the header row cells.

If you have additional questions, do not hesitate to contact me.
