Retrieve radtreelistview child node

[Sharada]

Hi,

I am using radtreelistview in order to display hierarchical data. I need to find all the child node for a particular parent node .
I tried the following code

var

 

 

childNodes = (currentrow as Telerik.Windows.Controls.TreeListView.TreeListViewRow).ChildrenOfType<Telerik.Windows.Controls.TreeListView.TreeListViewRow>();

 

 But the above code doesn't return anything.
Is there an in-built feature available in the current version? The control version used is 2011.1.223.35.

Hello Sharada,

 
Why do not you get the information on a data level?
Imagine that you have a class WarehouseItem with a property Items of type ObservableCollection<WarehouseItem>. You can easily get the child nodes of any item by observing its Items property. 
Will that be applicable for your scenario ? May give us more information about your particular requirements?

Kind regards,

Thanks for the prompt reply.I was able to get the child nodes using the items property.But I am facing 1 more problem.
I need to sum up all child nodes data at runtime (On  RadTreeListView1_CellEditEnded event).Since I am using RowVirtualization on radtreelistview , I am able to get only those child nodes which are in the view.Can you suggest an alternative way of getting the child nodes which are not in the view ?

Hey Vanya
I have the same problem with retrieving children of a parent node in RadTreeListView. I have a column with check boxes and I want to be able to check all the children of a node by checking the parent node.

I don't know if RadTreeListView has that kind of functionality but if i can retrieve all the children of a parent node I can take care of the rest programatically. But I can't find a way to get the children of a parent node. Is the link between the parent and children private?

Please Help

thanks

Hello Sharada,

Are you trying to get the Visual elements or just the Business objects behind the TreeList? 

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hey Nikolay,
I have the same issue. I am trying to get access to the visual element of the tree, not the underlying data objects. (Please see my earlier post in this thread)

thanks

Hi Maseeh,

Unfortunately, You cannot get the containers of the Items that are not loaded in the view port, without turning off the RowVirtualization. Can you elaborate a little bit more on your final goal so we can suggest an alternative approach?

Looking forward to hearing from you! 

All the best,
