exclude cell from datatable select property

Webix JS
#1

I turned on select: cell, multiselect: true. However there’s a particular column that contains an edit icon that i would like to exclude the select feature when that icon is clicked. I can’t seem to find this in the documentation. Could anyone help me out? Thank you so much!

You can use onBeforeSelect event to prevent unwanted selection.

on:{
  onBeforeSelect:function(id){
       if (id.column == "edit_icon") return false;
  }
}
