Ok. I have attached a project that replicates both issues I am seeing. So basically I'm not doing any of the binding myself; I let the grid do it for me. In my actual xaml, I define my own field, editor types and edit as, but the behavior is exactly the same as allowing the grid to create the fields on its own. 

Thanks,

I see the issue you are talking about. The internal binding UpdateSourceTrigger needs to be changed from the default "LostFocus" to "PropertyChanged". I will look into how to do this and post the solution.

For now, I'm using the following workaround:

1.  Add the following Field settings to my boolean fields:

                <igDP:Field.Settings>
                  <igDP:FieldSettings AllowEdit="True" EditAsType="{x:Type sys:Boolean}" EditorType="{x:Type igEditors:XamCheckEditor}" LabelWidth="60" CellWidth="60">
                    <igDP:FieldSettings.EditorStyle>
                      <Style TargetType="{x:Type igEditors:XamCheckEditor}">
                        <EventSetter Event="ValueChanged" Handler="HandleValueChangedAccept" />
                      </Style>
                    </igDP:FieldSettings.EditorStyle>

                  </igDP:FieldSettings>
                </igDP:Field.Settings>

and:

                <igDP:Field.Settings>
                  <igDP:FieldSettings AllowEdit="True" EditAsType="{x:Type sys:Boolean}" EditorType="{x:Type igEditors:XamCheckEditor}" LabelWidth="60" CellWidth="60" >
                    <igDP:FieldSettings.EditorStyle>
                      <Style TargetType="{x:Type igEditors:XamCheckEditor}">
                        <EventSetter Event="ValueChanged" Handler="HandleValueChangedRollback" />
                      </Style>
                    </igDP:FieldSettings.EditorStyle>
                  </igDP:FieldSettings>
                </igDP:Field.Settings>

I am hooking a handler to the ValueChanged event on the XamCheckEditor.

2.  Implement the handling methods:

       void HandleValueChangedAccept(object sender, RoutedPropertyChangedEventArgs<object> e)
        {
            bool newValue = (bool)e.NewValue;
            if (!newValue) return;

            DependencyObject o = Infragistics.Windows.Utilities.GetAncestorFromType(e.OriginalSource as DependencyObject, typeof(DataRecordCellArea), true);
            DataRecordCellArea dataRecord = o as DataRecordCellArea;
            if (dataRecord == null) return;
           
            DAO dao = dataRecord.Record.DataItem as DAO ;
            dao.Accept = (bool)e.NewValue;
        }

        void HandleValueChangedRollback(object sender, RoutedPropertyChangedEventArgs<object> e)
        {
            bool newValue = (bool)e.NewValue;
            if (!newValue) return;

            DependencyObject o = Infragistics.Windows.Utilities.GetAncestorFromType(e.OriginalSource as DependencyObject, typeof(DataRecordCellArea), true);
            DataRecordCellArea dataRecord = o as DataRecordCellArea;
            if (dataRecord == null) return;

            DAO dao = dataRecord.Record.DataItem as DAO ;
            dao .Rollback = (bool)e.NewValue;
        }

Notice that my logic dictates that two values cannot be set to true. My DAO setters handle this logic. But this creates an opportunity for an infinite loop. Since dao.Rollback may change the value of dao.Accept, the ValueChanged handlers for the checkboxes may keep on calling each other infinitely. For this purpose, I make sure that the handler doesn't do anything if the new value is false.

So this is a bit of a hackish way to do this, but it works. Chris, let me know if there's a more elegant way to do this using the UpdateSourceTrigger property of the internal binding.

I'm having same issues with bool type values I add to XamDataGrid. Here's the simple project I made with same thing.

 Any updates on this topic ?

I implemented this approach, because I did not see an alternative as of yet.  The approach works great, with one exception. 

I am defining my grids FieldSettings as follows:

<igDP:FieldSettings AllowEdit="True" 

CellClickAction="EnterEditModeIfAllowed"

AllowGroupBy="False"/>

</igDP:XamDataGrid.FieldSettings>

I expected that when I entered the cell, either via Tab, or mouse click, that I enter the edit mode, however this does not happen when applying this style, and the user cannot edit the values of the checkbox with just the keyboard.  Any way to force the cell to enter edit mode?

Thanks.
