Yes, it's confusing! Have you already tried customising a column by clicking the column behavior button? That should be the only way it would be highlighted and the add button disabled. From the way you describe it, here's what I think you should see
First click the Row Template button as you mentioned. On the resulting card, you should see a grey bar at the top - that's the row template (for all the columns). Select that and click the "Edit Group" button in the LC toolstrip at the top of the screen. Then click on the grey bar at various places until you see the name of your column in the stack's title bar. Alternatively, you can select on the datagrid's template card in the Data grid Templates stack, then click on the column name within the row template group and that will hilite it for you. Then click edit Group again and you should then be able to add whatever you want to the column (checkbox, option menu,etc). When you're done, click Edit Group again, close and save and you should be done. One other thing - you won;t see any of your customisations until there is data in the datagrid which can lead you to believe the customisation didn't work.
