Self-referencing hierarchy

[Christian]

Dear Support-Team

How can I get the (hierarchical) index of the current row and the the dataitem on client side (javascript) on a Self-referencing hierarchy?
   
If I try args.get_itemIndexHierarchical(); I get a hierarchical string like "0:0_0:0_0". How can I extract the row index? Is their a build in function? And how get I the right master or detail table on which the current row index acts?

A example would be very helpful.

Thanks in advanced.

KInd regards
Christian

Hi Uwe,

Indeed, the item index hierarchical you mentioned described in which detail table is the items and what is its index. So the item with ItemIndexHierarchical "0:0_0:0_0" is:

MasterTableView
- ItemIndex 0
  - DetailTable 0
    - ItemIndex 0 
      - DetailTable 0 
        - ItemIndex 0
