Embed Check Boxes into Nodes

  1. Set the TreeListView.ShowCheckboxes property to true to display check boxes embedded into nodes.

  2. Set values of check boxes. Do one of the following:

The code sample below shows how to display check boxes and bind them to the OnVacation field:

xaml
<dxg:GridControl Name="gridControl">
    <dxg:GridControl.Columns>
        <dxg:GridColumn FieldName="Name"/>
        <dxg:GridColumn FieldName="Department"/>
        <dxg:GridColumn FieldName="Position"/>
    </dxg:GridControl.Columns>
    <dxg:GridControl.View>
        <dxg:TreeListView KeyFieldName="ID" ParentFieldName="ParentID" AutoExpandAllNodes="True"
            CheckBoxFieldName="OnVacation" ShowCheckboxes="True" />
    </dxg:GridControl.View>
</dxg:GridControl>
csharp
public class Employee {
    public int ID { get; set; }
    public int ParentID { get; set; }
    public string Name { get; set; }
    public string Position { get; set; }
    public string Department { get; set; }
    public bool OnVacation { get; set; }
}
vb
Public Class Employee
    Public Property ID As Integer
    Public Property ParentID As Integer
    Public Property Name As String
    Public Property Position As String
    Public Property Department As String
    Public Property OnVacation As Boolean
End Class

Note

A field in a data source to which check boxes are bound should be of the Boolean or Nullable<Boolean> data type.

Note

Starting from v18.2 , the CheckBoxFieldName property supports complex paths to nested properties (e.g., “Order.IsProcessed” ).
