ui-grid-selection and ui-grid-tree-view in 4.2.4

[geraldpereira]

I recently upgraded from 4.1.3 to 4.2.4 and noticed a change in the selection behavior when using a tree.

I created two plunker to explain this:

• The 4.2.4 version
• The 4.1.3 version

I want to select the second row (named Nieves Mack, $$treeLevel set to 1, the child node of the first tree node). In the previous version, it was selected as expected. Now when I select the second row, its parent node in the tree is selected.

Is this a bug or a change in the API?

This change (regression?) seems to have been introduced in the 4.2.3 version.

This was a change meant to address a number of logged issues.

See the following commit:

And the following bugs:
fix #3911, fix #6126, fix #6145, fix #6263, fix #6398

@mportuga so I cannot select the first and only child without also selecting the parent node? Or is there an option to activate in the grid options?

If I activate the multiselect: true, when I click on the child node, the parent is also selected. I can then click on the parent node to only have the child selected.

If the multiselect option is set to false, the child node cannot be selected at all!

Hi, i agree with @geraldpereira, i have the same problem. In a treeview with multiselect: false is impossible to select child node.
