Hi,
We performed additional research and found that this fix breaks the existing functionality. We decided to revert it and will update this thread once we find an efficient solution. Please bear with us.
Hello,
Let me explain what a grouped DataSource is. This is not a hierarchical structure. This is a simple DataSource object with plain data and the declared group property. This property specifies a field by which data should be grouped. We will improve our documentation to avoid misunderstanding in the future.
As for the issue, I suggest you modify your DataSource in accordance with the above description. I've created an online sample to illustrate this approach - https://codesandbox.io/s/0yyzq4814l
Please try this and let me know your results.
Could you please clarify which approach you mean? A link to our documentation topic will be very helpful.
Refering to the original post, it's here in the documentation, in the second example where it uses the 'map' functionality from the DataSource. And also here it is an example on codesandbox that displays the same code, with the wrong functionality (it doesn't show the selection).
Thank you for the clarification. We need additional time for detailed research and will update this ticket once we have any results.
