Description
Reproduce
- Set up a boolean column with a checkbox interface.
- Select a cell in the column.
- Click the cell background (not the checkbox).
- Observe the state of the checkbox to toggle
For the time being, this behavior is followed from airtable which has the most similar UX for a boolean column. We will need to research and come up with the best suited UX for us.
Sean's opinion
- I'd rather not assign any functionality to that action because I think that users will end up inadvertently toggling their checkboxes. I'd rather keep the checkbox toggling functionality limited to clicking strictly on the checkbox. I don't see any value in providing additional click area when it takes an extra click to active that area. Clicking on the checkbox itself is easy enough.
Additional context
- @pavish set up the current behavior within Text type & basic Boolean type frontend implementation #1080
