Toggle selection for all items

Question

Toggle selection for all items

Radu TIRNACOP 105

I would like the checkbox "Toggle selection for all items" to be always visible and not only when I hover with the mouse.

How can I solve it?

Hi @Radu TIRNACOP

Per my research, we can only set hideSelection true or false by Format view. When we set hideSelection to true, the toggle button will be hide, and false will be visible when I hover with the mouse.

{
  "$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/v2/row-formatting.schema.json",
  "hideSelection": true
}

Here is the document for more details

I feel regretful to inform you that it turns out to be a by-design one. And I noticed that some end users have also proposed the same request, it is highly recommended that you can vote this ticket. Many features of our current products are designed and upgraded based on customers’ feedback. With requirements like this increase, the problem may well be released in the future. Thanks for your understanding.

Hello @RaytheonXie_MSFT

Unfortunately, the problem was not solved. I will wait for an update from Sharepoint where this change can be made. I wanted the Toggle selection for all items column, more precisely the circles, to be always visible.

Thanks!
