Add a radio button jqxwidget

Question

I am using jqxgrid in my application.Here ,I want to have ‘radiobutton’ selection mode for selecting a particular row as we have ‘checkbox’ selection mode.We have ‘singleselect’ selection mode available for selecting one row at a time but I also want to display the radiobutton for every row as we get it for checkbox.So,can anyone please suggest a solution for this.

that is my code:

  const source = useMemo(() => new jqx.dataAdapter({
id: 'id',
localdata: dotsStation,
datatype: 'array',
datafields: [
  { name: 'id', type: 'string', map: "id" },
  { name: 'name', type: 'string', map: 'name' },
  { name: 'descrition', type: 'string', map: 'descrition' },
  { name: 'lat', type: 'number', map: "latitude" },
  { name: 'long', type: 'number', map: "long" },
  { name: 'altitude', type: 'number', map: "altitude" },
  { name: 'idDatum', type: 'number', map: "idDatum" },
  { name: 'status', type: 'string', map: "status" },
  { name: 'sync', type: 'bool', map: "sync" },
  ], }), [dotsStation]);  
const columns = useMemo(() => [
{
  text: 'Sync/Unsync', width: "10%", menu: false, dataField: 'sync',
  columntype: "checkbox", type: "boolean", enabletooltips: false,
},
{ text: 'Long', datafield: 'long', width: "15%", editable: false },
{ text: 'Lat', datafield: 'lat', width: "15%", editable: false },
{ text: 'Altitude (m)', datafield: 'altitude', width: "15%", editable: false },
{ text: 'Name', datafield: 'name', editable: false, width: "15%" },
{ text: 'Descrition', datafield: 'descrition', editable: false, width: "15%" },
{ text: 'Status', datafield: 'status', editable: false, width: "15%" },
], []);

Answer 1

So, you want to have a "radio button"-like selection mode.

The first solution is that you can use the 'checkbox' selection mode to achieve this.

The pros is,
you can even click on any cell to select a row, not just the checkbox.

The cons is,
the 'select all' checkbox on the header row will not work anymore, but I think it should be that way in your circumstance.

$('#jqxgrid').on('rowselect', function (event) 
{
  var args = event.args;
  var rowBoundIndex = args.rowindex;
  var selectedRowIndexes = $('#jqxgrid').jqxGrid('getselectedrowindexes');
  var filtered = selectedRowIndexes.filter(value => value != rowBoundIndex);
  filtered.forEach(index => $("#jqxgrid").jqxGrid('unselectrow', index));
});
  
$("#jqxgrid").on("cellclick", function (event) 
{
  var args = event.args;
  var rowBoundIndex = args.rowindex;
    
  $("#jqxgrid").jqxGrid('selectrow', rowBoundIndex);
});

The second solution is use the 'cellvaluechanged' event to detect the field value changes, which I think this should be more preferrable based on your code.

$("#jqxgrid").on("cellvaluechanged", function (event) 
{
  var args = event.args;
  var rowBoundIndex = args.rowindex;
  var value = args.newvalue;
  var allrows = $("#jqxgrid").jqxGrid('getrows');
    
  if (value) {
    allrows.filter(data => {
      if (data.boundindex != rowBoundIndex && data.sync) {
        $("#jqxgrid").jqxGrid('setcellvalue', data.boundindex, 'sync', false);
      }
    });
  }
});

$(document).ready(function() {
  var data = [{
      id: "1",
      legalName: "Agrawal, Parag",
      agencyName: "Social Services",
