I'm wanting to use a checkbox to select items in an unbound grid. It is working, but to change the selection from True to False or vice versa I have to double-click. Is there a way to make this a single click? I can see this being a source of complaint from end users as it seems to "not work" when you single click.

Hmm, it doesn't work at all if the grid's RowSelect is true.

I could have sworn that I added this feature already, but apparently I didn't.  I'll add it to the list.

This is by-design - none of the editing controls work when RowSelect=True.

Hmm, it would be nice to be able to have a single check-box operating when it is. I shall have to check if I can multi-select rows when rowselect is on, but the idea is that I want to have the user be able to "turn off" certain items that are shown in the grid. It defaults to import all, and they can de-select a line if they don't want that one imported. But the individual cell selection doesn't make good sense from an interaction point of view.

So if it were possible to have the selection reflected in a checkbox, that might be nice. Ho hum.

Noted, and added to the list.  It's probably something that I can address when I deal with the fixed column support in the grid.
