Close panelbar

[Anders]

I have a panelBar with expandMode 'single'. Can I make it collapse when I click on a expanden item.
I want my user to be abel to collapse all items.

Hi Anders,

You can use the PanelBar's select event, check whether the currently clicked item is already expanded and if so, collapse it via the API.

function expandCollapse(e) {
    if ($(e.item).is(".k-state-active")) {
        var that = this;
        window.setTimeout(function(){that.collapse(e.item);}, 1);
    }
}

var panelBar = $("#panelbar").kendoPanelBar({
    expandMode: "single",
    select: expandCollapse
}).data("kendoPanelBar");

Just a suggestion...

Make this a feature! It's a pretty common scenario and it would be great to just make it configurable.

I currently have an instance where I want to mode to be "single" but also want the user to be able to collapse all items.

In fact, I would want this to be the default behavior!
