Hello Senthil,

I have tested the scenario linked with the official version just before the one you use and it worked correctly at my side when i removed the CloseDropDownOnSelection="true" property of RadDropDownTree which was added  Q1 2014 .

I am attaching my test page.

Hope this will help you solve the issue.

This is my client requirement , Please let me know whether we can do for Batch

Hello Senthil,

I am sorry to say but the same approach is not applicable for scenarios where Batch editing is used. The reason for this is that the grid can not properly extract the value from the RadDropDownTree.

You can try workarounding this problem by subscribing to the four batch editing events(OnBatchEditGetCellValue, OnBatchEditSetEditorValue, OnBatchEditGetEditorValue and OnBatchEditSetCellValue) and manually getting/setting the control and cell values. An example on how to achieve this is available here.

Are there any new approaches on this one?

Or working example?

Thank you

Hi David,

We do not have an example for this specific scenario, however, there are a couple of examples that show an idea of working with the Batch Editing manager when you have a custom component inside a Template Column:

• Cascading ComboBoxes in Grid with BatchEdit
• Cascading ComboBoxes with BatchEditing and Master/Detail Hierarchy
• Cascading MultiColumnComboBox in Grid with BatchEdit

Note: when working with EditMode="batch" it is important to understand the specifics about it, see RadGrid Batch Editing Templates and Specifics. Once you understand why this is different from the other EditModes, you will have a better idea of how to work with it.

Hi Atilla,

  Thank you for picking up this topic. Your examples relate to other controls, i specifically having issues with RadDropDownTree.

I provided code in another thread i started.

Thank you

Hi David,

Yes, the examples I shared are not specific to the DropDownTree Component. They rather show examples of how to handle Batch editing when it comes to complex scenarios. I have shared more details for your question in the other Forum post: RadDropDownTree in GridTemplateColumn.
