Selecting a Single Node
To select a node use the Selected
property of RadTreeNode.
The following example demonstrates how to do it.
Copy[C#]
radTreeView1.SelectedNode = radTreeView1.Nodes[0];
Copy[VB.NET]
RadTreeView1.SelectedNode = RadTreeView1.Nodes(0)
Selecting Multiple Nodes
To enable the multiple selection the MultiSelect property of
RadTreeView must be set to true.
The default value is false.
| Selection | Example | Description |
| Single Selection | | The user can select a single node by clicking the node. |
| Multiple Selection using the Shift key | | To select a continuous series of multiple nodes at one time hold the Shift key and click on a node using the mouse. That will select all nodes between the first selected node and the node that was just clicked. The screenshot shows nodes selected between "Deleted Items" and "Large Mail". |
| Multiple Selection using the Ctrl key | | To select multiple nodes in distributed throughout the RadTreeView, hold the Ctrl key and click on each node using the mouse. That will select the clicked node but not unselect the previously selected nodes. The screenshot shows the "Deleted Items" and "Rss Feeds" nodes selected. |
Selecting Multiple Nodes Programmatically
To select multiple nodes through the API, just set the Selected property of the desired nodes
to true. The example below adds four nodes, then selects the last two nodes.
Copy[C#]
radTreeView1.MultiSelect = true;
RadTreeNode Node1 = new RadTreeNode("Inbox");
RadTreeNode Node2 = new RadTreeNode("Deleted Items");
RadTreeNode Node3 = new RadTreeNode("Outbox");
RadTreeNode Node4 = new RadTreeNode("Sent");
radTreeView1.Nodes.Add(Node1);
radTreeView1.Nodes.Add(Node2);
radTreeView1.Nodes.Add(Node3);
radTreeView1.Nodes.Add(Node4);
Node3.Selected = true;
Node4.Selected = true;Copy[VB.NET]
RadTreeView1.MultiSelect = True
Dim Node1 As New RadTreeNode("Inbox")
Dim Node2 As New RadTreeNode("Deleted Items")
Dim Node3 As New RadTreeNode("Outbox")
Dim Node4 As New RadTreeNode("Sent")
RadTreeView1.Nodes.Add(Node1)
RadTreeView1.Nodes.Add(Node2)
RadTreeView1.Nodes.Add(Node3)
RadTreeView1.Nodes.Add(Node4)
Node3.Selected = True
Node4.Selected = True
