See: https://github.com/swimlane/ngx-datatable/blob/master/docs/api/table/inputs.md#selectcheck … there is a demo for this too.

I believe because of “Working as Intended” status here we have omission in requirements. Have a look please on tree behaviour of OS windows managers (MacOS - Finder, Windows - Explorer). When user toggles a tree icon view does not show (select) folder content. There is very simple use case when user toggles a row (treeAction event) to not select the row.

Suppose on row click in a tree table you want to fetch data from a server. Now on any treeAction event we have onSelect (or onActivate) event. Thus, we will have redundant server requests …

If we try to use selectCheck (as suggested above) the question is how to decide do we have treeAction click or click on the row (onActivate or onSelect)?! 🤷‍♀️
