To enable selection, set allowSelection as true. Grid supports two types of selection which can be set using selectionSettings->type property. They are, Single - Enabled by default. Allows the user to select single row/cell at a time. Multiple - Allows the user to select more than one row/cell/column at a time. Also, supports three modes of selection which can be set using selectionSettings->mode property. They are, Row - Enabled by default. Enables the row selection in Grid. Cell - Enables the cell selection in Grid. Both - Enables both the row and cell selection in Grid. Clicking any cell will select the both row and cell simultaneously. To perform the column selection, enable the selectionSettings->allowColumnSelection property. To perform the multi-selection, hold CTRL key and click the desired rows/cells/columns. To select range of rows/cells, hold SHIFT key and click the rows/cells/columns. While using the Grid in a touch device environment, there is an option for multi-selection through single tap on the row and it will show a popup with the multi-selection symbol.
