RadTreeView node.startEdit and Server Code

[orim]

Hi,
i have a radtreeview with contextmenu. In javascript i execute following

function onClientContextMenuItemClicking(sender, args) {

    selectedoption = args.get_menuItem().get_value();
    selectednode = args.get_node();

    menuItem = args.get_menuItem();
    treeNode = args.get_node();
    menuItem.get_menu().hide();


    switch (menuItem.get_value()) {

        case "FsFolder-Create":
            //treeNode.startEdit();
            //args.set_cancel(true);
            //radprompt('Enter Node Name', promptCallBackFn);


            var treeFs = $find('ctl00_MainContent_RadTreeViewFileShare');
            treeFs.trackChanges();
            var newNode = new Telerik.Web.UI.RadTreeNode();
            newNode.set_value(2);
            newNode.set_text('New Folder (' + (treeNode.get_nodes().get_count() + 1) + ')');
            newNode.set_imageUrl('../Content/Images/TreeView/FolderAllow.png');
            treeNode.get_nodes().add(newNode);
            treeNode.set_expanded(true);
            newNode.startEdit();
           // treeFs.commitChanges();
           args.set_cancel(true);
            break;

        case "FsFolder-Rename":
            treeNode.startEdit();
            args.set_cancel(true);
            break;


        case "FsFolder-Delete":
            if (!clickCalledAfterRadconfirm) {
                args.set_cancel(true);
                menuItemDel = args.get_menuItem();
                radconfirm('Are you sure you want to delete the folder: <b>' + treeNode.get_text() + '</b>', confirmCallBackFn, 300, 120, null, 'Folder Delete');
            }
            break;

    }
}

hit ENTER this starts the server side event ...NodeEdit.

I need to execute server side ...ContextMenuItemClick after javascript treeNode.startEdit.
Is this possible?

Hello,

Please find attached a sample project implementing very similar scenario:

1. In the OnClientContextMenuItemClicking event handler the click event is canceled and the clicked item is stored.
2. That way you can execute treeNode.startEdit and let user change the node text value.
3. When he is finished typing the new node text value you can execute the click event for the stored menu item.
4. This will fire the ContextMenuItemClick server-side event.

What about stopping the editing function. I dont want to edit the node on node click. I have a button for that.

Hello,

I would suggest stopping the node editing functionality by setting the RadTreeView property AllowNodeEditing="false".
