VTreeview: select non-leaf nodes

[ray007]

I'm trying to create a treeview, which loads its nodes asynchronously and can select a single folder node.
Looking at the docs, using select-strategy single-independent should get me half-way there.

Since I only want to select a single node, I wanted a view without checkboxes beside every single item.
Unfortunately, selecting any folder-node does not work, since the click handler in VListItem.tsx stops with

if (isGroupActivator) return

Is there any way to activate/select non-leaf nodes without the checkboxes?

Disallowing leaf-nodes would probably require a new select-strategy or some extra work in my component, right?

With a bit of CSS, yes.
But you probably need #11813 if the goal is to only allow selecting folders (nodes)

[ray007]

@J-Sek yes, the mentioned issue is closely related to my problem.

But I would even argue, that with open-on-click set to false, isGroupActivator should not be set to true as mentioned above.
Feels like a bug...

Hey @ray007,

Getting VTreeview to independently select parent folders without automatically grabbing children can be tricky. Setting select-strategy="independent" is exactly the right track, but you might need to manually override the item-value or use the update:modelValue event to filter out leaves.

Let me know if you make any progress or if you need another fresh set of eyes on it!
