How to make a check box column read-only in .NET MAUI DataGrid (SfDataGrid)?

3 mins read

Currently, .NET MAUI DataGrid does not offer built-in support for setting a DataGridCheckBoxColumn as read-only. However, you can fulfill this requirement by incorporating a CheckBox within a DataGridTemplateColumn and configuring the IsEnabled property of the CheckBox to be false.

XAML:
<syncfusion:SfDataGrid  ItemsSource="{Binding Employees}"
                      AutoGenerateColumnsMode="None"                  
                      DefaultColumnWidth="155">
  <syncfusion:SfDataGrid.Columns>
      <syncfusion:DataGridTemplateColumn MappingName="EmployeeStatus"                                               
                                         HeaderText="Employee Status">
          <syncfusion:DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
              <DataTemplate>
                  <CheckBox IsEnabled="False"
                            HorizontalOptions="Center"
                            IsChecked="{Binding EmployeeStatus}" />
              </DataTemplate>
          </syncfusion:DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
      </syncfusion:DataGridTemplateColumn>
      <syncfusion:DataGridTextColumn MappingName="EmployeeID"
                                     HeaderText="Employee ID" />
      <syncfusion:DataGridTextColumn MappingName="Name"
                                     HeaderText="Name" />
      <syncfusion:DataGridTextColumn MappingName="IDNumber"
                                     HeaderText="ID Number" />
  </syncfusion:SfDataGrid.Columns>

</syncfusion:SfDataGrid>

Executing the code example above yields the following output.
