Easier-to-Click Checkboxes in FlexGrid

By default, the FlexGrid uses standard HTML checkboxes for editing Boolean columns:

A few of our customers told us they found the checkboxes a little small and hard to click. We suggested this simple CSS-based workaround:

.wj-flexgrid .wj-cell-check {  
     transform: scale(1.5);  
 }

This makes the checkboxes larger and easier to see and click.

This solution was fine for most of those customers, but a few told us what they really wanted was to be able to toggle the checkboxes by clicking the empty part of the cell.

We addressed that request by adding a bigCheckboxes property to the FlexGrid. If you set this new property to true, users will be able to toggle the checkboxes by clicking anywhere on the Boolean cells.
