Auto Expand a Grouped Item

[Missing User]

Hello!
I have a Telerik RadGridView on my page and i manage to auto group de results when the page loads using the GroupDescriptors
Example:

<telerik:RadGridView.GroupDescriptors>
                <telerik:GroupDescriptor Member="Project.Project"
                                         DisplayContent="Project"
                                         SortDirection="Ascending"
                                         />
            </telerik:RadGridView.GroupDescriptors>

I have 4 grouped items, that are the status of the projects:

Started, In Progress, Stoped, Finished.

When the page loads all the groups are "Collapsed" but i want that the Started group stay "visible" or "opended" is there a way to do this?

i will send a image that examples what i'm triyng to do.

Hi Joao Paulo,

 
If you need to programmatically expand and collapse specific groups
you may use ExpandGroup/CollapseGroup methods of RadGridView:

// to expand first group
this.gridView.ExpandGroup(this.gridView.Items.Groups[0] as IGroup);
// to collapse the first group
this.gridView.CollapseGroup(this.gridView.Items.Groups[0] as IGroup);

If you want to read more about grouping you may refer to our online documentation following this link.
