  I am trying to add a listener to the a checkbox to fire when the checkbox value changes. I have tried adding listeners to the ‘click’, ‘change’ and ‘click change’ events. When I click on the checkbox none of these events fire. However, when I click within the cell but not on the checkbox, the ‘click’ event fires. What am I doing wrong.
  
  Thanks, Ed

  Hi Ed,

  Instead of the click and change event, you will need to handle the mousedown event of the FlexGrid. Please refer to the code snippet:

  grid.hostElement.addEventListener('mousedown', function(e) {
    if(e.target.type === 'checkbox') {
      console.dir('checkbox changed');
    }
  }, false)
  

  Regards,
