MultiSelectTree

MultiSelectTrees allow the users to select multiple items from a hierarchical tree structure.

Usage Guidelines

The Telerik and Kendo UI MultiSelectTree requires you to follow some basic principles when using the component.

Number of Nodes

Using too many nodes in the MultiSelectTree component can overwhelm users and make the selection process difficult. It can lead to a cluttered interface, making it hard for users to navigate and find the desired options.

Use a well-organized tree hierarchy with logical grouping and limited number of nodes.
Avoid using too many nodes, as it can confuse users and make the selection process cumbersome.

Item Content

Consider the width of the MultiSelectTree and keep the names of its nodes short and compact so that they fit within the component. Long item names that get truncated are hard to perceive and must be avoided.

Keep the description of the MultiSelectTree nodes as short as possible to improve readability.
Avoid using lengthy nodes descriptions because the text can get truncated and users will find it difficult to read.

Label

The label of the MultiSelectTree provides a clear and concise description of its purpose, making it easier for users to interact with the interface and understand it. Always display a label unless the MultiSelectTree is next to another component which already has a label. The label of the MultiSelectTree can be set as part of the Telerik and Kendo UI Form component.

Use clear and concise labels that accurately describe the purpose and function of the MultiSelectTree.
Avoid using the MultiSelectTree without a label as this compromises the intuitiveness of the component, leading to confusion and frustration.
