I have a problem with the tree list view.  I understand that out of the box the ASP.NET Ajax version of the TreeListView is supposed to support the Drop Line Indicator but on my implementation of the control I don't have that.  Is there something that I am doing or something that I should turn on?  I have looked through the documentation and I have looked through the forums and I keep getting references to wpf and silverlight and nothing on the asp.net AJAX control.  So a little help would be great.  Also attached is a screen shot of the site where I have this to show that I am not getting any indicator.  Here's my code:

<telerik:RadTreeList ID="MenuManager" runat="server">
    <Columns>
        <telerik:TreeListBoundColumn DataField="MenuText" HeaderText="Menu Name" UniqueName="Name" />
        <telerik:TreeListHyperLinkColumn DataNavigateUrlFields="SitePageID" DataNavigateUrlFormatString="/admin/pageManager/?CID={0}" DataTextField="PageTitle" HeaderText="Url Title" UniqueName="PageTitle"  />
        <telerik:TreeListBoundColumn DataField="MenuUrl" HeaderText="Url" UniqueName="MenuUrl" />
        <telerik:TreeListBoundColumn DataField="MenuTarget" HeaderText="Target" UniqueName="MenuTarget" HeaderStyle-Width="60px" />
        <telerik:TreeListBoundColumn DataField="IsEnabled" HeaderText="Status" UniqueName="MenuItemEnabled" HeaderStyle-Width="60px" />
        <telerik:TreeListEditCommandColumn ButtonType="ImageButton" HeaderStyle-Width="60px" />
        <telerik:TreeListButtonColumn ButtonType="ImageButton" ButtonCssClass="deleteConfirm" CommandName="Delete" HeaderStyle-Width="30px" />
    </Columns>
    <EditFormSettings UserControlPath="~/includes/userControls/MenuForm.ascx" EditFormType="WebUserControl">
    </EditFormSettings>
    <ClientSettings AllowItemsDragDrop="true">
        <Selecting AllowItemSelection="True" />
    </ClientSettings>
</telerik:RadTreeList>

Hello Kevin,

The RadTreeList does not have a drop line indicator like the RadGrid, because this is a hierarchy structure and usually you cannot drop the item between two others.

The arrow indicates you when you can drop the item.

I hope this helps.

No this doesn't help but it does answer the question.  I have created some custom handling so that each drop moves the item as a sibling instead of a child.  For the most part this works great but it doesn't show the end user where the drop will occur.  Adding this functionality would be very helpful if this is possible.
