    Hello,

    Sorry, you cannot bold just part of the text, you can just change the font for the entire text.

    Hope this helps, if you have any other questions or comments, please let me know,

    Hello Deepesh,

    You can format part of the text in a RadTreeView Node by using HTML-Like formatting.
    For exmaple:

    Me.RadTreeView1.Nodes.Add("<html><strike>Node Strike</html>")
    Me.RadTreeView1.Nodes.Add("<html><color= Red>Node Red</html>")
    Me.RadTreeView1.Nodes.Add("<html><strong>Node Bold</strong> and not so bold</html>")

    you can view all the tags for HTML-Like formatting at this link

    hope that helps, but let me know if you have any other questions.

    Hello again,

    Yes, sorry, i forgot about the markup editor for the tree... my bad (thank you Richard)

    Other than that you can use this code to achieve the desired effect.
        FormatTreeNodes(radTreeView1.Nodes);
     
    private void FormatTreeNodes(RadTreeNodeCollection levelNodes)
    {
        foreach (RadTreeNode node in levelNodes)
        {
            if (node.Text.Contains('('))
            {
                var text = new StringBuilder(node.Text);
                text = text.Replace("(", "(<strong>");
                text = text.Replace(")", "</strong>)");
                node.Text = ("<html>" + text + "</html>").ToString();
            }
     
            FormatTreeNodes(node.Nodes);
        }
    }

    Hope this helps, if you have any other questions or comments, please let me know,

    Hello guys,

    Please note that in Q1 2011 we have introduced a major upgrade of RadTreeView control, which is now virtualized and fully customizable. Feel free to download the latest release and try it out. For more information on our latest release refer to this blog post.
