Hello,
I'm trying to use the OrgChart for a tournament table layout. This means that you go from many items to fewer items. I know it is (for now) not yet supported to set the orientation from left to right but i can work around this and use top to bottom. To allow 2 items to melt into 1, i use grouping. This only works for one level though. as soon as the top level is halved, i need the second level to group 2 items together.
So i go from 8 items to 4items to 2 items to 1. This is in my opinion not possible with the current OrgChart.
multiple parents would be a great feature and would solve my problem.
Do you have any idea on when this feature might be introduced? Or do you have a workaround using another control or multiple groupings?
Thank you,
Phill

Hi Phill,
I prepared a sample project for your case. It is possible to use groups and achieve the knockout layout. Please review the attachment.
Regarding your last question, multiple parents feature suggestion is something we will consider for future versions. Unfortunately there is no other control that you can replace RadOrgChart with and accomplish your aim.
Kind regards,
