Remarks

By default, when batch editing is enabled, Check Column cells present their values differently, depending on whether or not they are being edited.

  • In Browse mode, column cells display an icon for all true values.
  • In Edit mode, column cells display Check Box editors (rendered as native checkboxes).

BootstrapGrid_BatchEdit_CheckColumn_Regular

The AlwaysShowCheckboxesInCheckColumns property allows you to specify that checkboxes should always be displayed, regardless of the active mode.

BootstrapGrid_BatchEdit_CheckColumn_AlwaysShowCheckboxes

Note

Note that when a cell displays a checkbox in the browse mode, clicking a check box automatically triggers cell editing and changes the cell value. The GridBatchEditSettings.StartEditAction property value is ignored in this case.
