Only allow single selection

[David Cowan]

Is there any way to limit file selection to only one?  I tried setting

fileExplorer.TreeView.MultipleSelect = false;

But it didn't work.

Hi David,

You can disable the multiple file selection by configuring the FileExplorer's Configuration's AllowMultipleSelection property:

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    fileExplorer.Configuration.AllowMultipleSelection = false;
}

Hope this helps.

I have set that and multiple selection is still allowed.  I am in ExplorerMode="FileTree"  not sure if that makes a difference

Hi David,

I have just answered you support ticket on the subject, for convenience I am pasting my answer here as well:

I managed to reproduce the issue and I can confirm that it is a bug the FileExplorer control. I have logged it into our feedback system and you can track its progress here: feedback item.

For the time being you can disable the TreeView selection with the following configuration in the Page_PreRenderComplete event:

protected void Page_PreRenderComplete(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    RadFileExplorer1.TreeView.MultipleSelect = false;
}

A sign of gratitude for your report I have updated your Telerik points accordingly.

I have tried this but get an exception because the TreeView property is null

Hello David,

Is there a chance that FileExplorer on your page is placed inside a template container, so the control cannot be achieved directly through its ID? If this is not the case, can you please isolate the issue and send us the exact configuration causing it so we can debug it on our side?

The following article will explain in more details the project isolation steps you should follow: Isolating a problem in a sample project

Looking forward to hearing from you,
