Checkbox plugin - dont check child nodes when checking parent

[spartak]

Is there a way not automatically check all child nodes when their
parent node is checked ?

+1 for this feature

I explain the situation, so you understand why it is necessary in some
cases.

I have a tree of "search agents" (configured with boolean searches)
I can organize them in folders and I display them using jstree.

I now implement a statistic features that displays graphs. I want to
be able to compare the counts on the folder to the count on a node.
that means selecting a folder + just one of its child.
Is it achievable with the new version of the tree? (currently
implemented with 0.99).
Keep up the good work, this tree is really awesome.

Regards,

Stéphane

Hi,

There is such a solution here in the groups - a fellow member wrote a
custom checkbox plugin which does exactly that.
Or you can even achieve it using multple_select_modifier (ui) set to
"on", and a modified theme.

Kindest regards,
Ivan

Can someone please point me to the solution Ivan is referring to? I cant seem to find it.

Thanks.

Hi. I also need same functional.

My condition - "checked parent" is not equal "all checked children"

My tree:
[_] Root
     [_] Parent
          [_] Child1
          [_] Child2
     [_] Parent2

When Child1 checked I need:

[*] Root
     [*] Parent
          [V] Child1
          [_] Child2
     [_] Parent2
(* - is "partial" mark)

and when Child2 checked I need:

[*] Root
     [*] Parent
          [V] Child1
          [V] Child2
     [_] Parent2

I wrote events handler that when I check Parent(with checked any child) it make:

[_] Root
     [V] Parent
          [_] Child1
          [_] Child2
     [_] Parent2

(automaticaly uncheck all childs and all his parent)
If again check Child1 - Parent will unchecked

But in two-state mode there are no partial marks on Root.
How to add "tri-state" marks on "my logic"


"my logic":

jquery('#tree').bind("change_state.jstree", function (e, data) {
    if (!this._changeStateProcessActive) {
        this._changeStateProcessActive = true;
        var tree_instance = data.inst;
        var node = data.rslt;
        if (tree_instance.is_checked(node)) {
                function recursiveUncheckChilds(node) {
                        var childs = tree_instance._get_children(node);
                        for (var i = 0; i < childs.length; i++) {
                                tree_instance.uncheck_node(childs[i]);
                                recursiveUncheckChilds(childs[i]);
                        }
                }
                function recursiveUncheckParents(node) {
                        if (node) {
                                tree_instance.uncheck_node(node);
                                recursiveUncheckParents(tree_instance._get_parent(node));
                        }
                }
                recursiveUncheckChilds(node);
                recursiveUncheckParents(tree_instance._get_parent(node));
                tree_instance.close_node(node);
        } else {
                tree_instance.open_node(node);
        }
        this._changeStateProcessActive = null;
    }
});

version: pre 1.0 fix 2

Maybe there is more elegant solution?

Thanks

Just set the three_state property to false.  For example:

                $("#tree").jstree({

                    "checkbox": { "three_state": false },

                    "core": {

                        "data": globals.treedata

                    },

                    "plugins": ["wholerow", "checkbox"]

                });
