MultiselectColumn component

The MultiselectColumn component implements a column with checkboxes for selecting records. It also provides controls for selecting multiple records.

MultiselectColumn is a child of the Listing component and is rendered in its view. Like any component, it can hold the sort order value, which influences the order of all its child elements.

Integration

This example integrates the MultiselectColumn component with the Listing component:

<listing>
    <columns>
        <selectionsColumn name="ids">
            <settings>
                <indexField>id</indexField>
            </settings>
        </selectionsColumn>
    </columns>
</listing>
Copied to your clipboard
<listing>
    <columns>
        <selectionsColumn name="ids">
            <settings>
                <indexField>id</indexField>
            </settings>
        </selectionsColumn>
    </columns>
</listing>
