Dynamic imagekey change

[superold]

Hi, a breaking change has happened between 2009Q1 1414 and 2009Q2 SP1 9729.

I add images dynamically to an imagelist. Then I change the ImageKey (tried with ImageIndex as well) on a node. The image is not shown. This breaks my application which worked fine on 2009Q1 1414.

        private void radButton1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            imageList1.Images.Add(radTextBox1.Text, Image.FromFile(radTextBox1.Text));

            //radTreeView1.Nodes[0].ImageKey = radTextBox1.Text;

            radTreeView1.Nodes[0].ImageIndex = imageList1.Images.IndexOfKey(radTextBox1.Text);
        }

Any ideas?

Hello Jorge Delgado-Lopez,

Thank you for reporting this. We will change the behavior back in the next release. Please set the Image property of your tree nodes directly. Your Telerik points have been updated.

Kind regards,

We run into the same problem in 2010 Q1 504 version...

Hi Przemysław Dzierżak,

Thank you for writing.

In order to work around this issue you can simply assign null to the ImageList property of RadTreeView and then assign your ImageList again. This will cause RadTreeView to refresh its image cache. Since ImageList does not provide any means through which we can know that there are new or removed images, the cache does not refresh when you add images. We decided to create this cache because of memory footprint concerns.

I hope this helps.

Sincerely yours,
Victor

Tried your suggestion but it didnt work.

Although I dont see how to assign null to it through property manager. There is a "none" option, but like I said that didnt make any difference. The TreeView is not picking up on the new images I have added to my imagelist.

 Any other work arounds? Q1 2010 504.
