We're using 2016.1. We're also using the igGridSelection event rowSelectionChanging to control whether or not a row gets selected when clicked. This seems to work fine. However, when clicking a different row in the igGrid, the currently selected row is automatically de-selected (even if our code prevents the newly clicked row from being selected). How can we prevent a row from being automatically de-selected when clicked?
Hello,
returning false in rowSelectionChanging will prevent deselecting the previous row and selecting the clicked one.
For example:
rowSelectionChanging: function (e, ui) { if(ui.row.index === 0) { return false; } }
Sorry, I left out an important piece of information - we are actually using an igHierarchalGrid. This works as you describe when working with a single child igGrid within the igHierarchicalGrid.
However, we need for this to work across the entire igHierarchicalGrid. If a row is selected in one child igGrid and the user clicks a row in another child igGrid, the rowSelectionChanging is correctly preventing the clicked row from being selected. However, the row currently selected in a different child igGrid is automatically deselected. We want the row to remain selected.
