checkbox binding

[Eric Zeng]

I created a treeview, because I had designated ItemsOptionListType="CheckList", so there is a checkbox next to every node. But I need to check the checkbox according to different datasets(Receiver Object collection), so how can I achieve this feature through binding?

Here is my Class:

 public class Receiver
    {
        public Receiver() { }
        [Key]
        public int AdminId { get; set; }
        public string AdminName { get; set; }
        public int TeamId { get; set; }
        public string TeamName { get; set; }
    }

Here is my tree:

<riaControls:DomainDataSource x:Name="DDS_OrgOrderList"
AutoLoad="False"
QueryName="GetOrganizationListByIDQuery"
LoadedData="DDS_OrgOrderList_LoadedData">
<riaControls:DomainDataSource.DomainContext>
<localWeb:MessageContext/>
</riaControls:DomainDataSource.DomainContext>
<riaControls:DomainDataSource.QueryParameters>
<riaData:Parameter ParameterName="orgID"/>
</riaControls:DomainDataSource.QueryParameters>
</riaControls:DomainDataSource> <core:HierarchicalDataTemplate x:Key="Org" ItemsSource="{Binding Orgs}">             <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">                  <Image Source="{Binding Image}" Margin=" 0,0,6,0" />                 <TextBlock Text="{Binding ID}"  Margin=" 0,0,6,0" FontSize="12" />                  <TextBlock Text="{Binding Name}" FontSize="12" />             </StackPanel>        </core:HierarchicalDataTemplate>

<telerikNavigation:RadTreeView SelectionMode="Extended" IsLineEnabled="True"  ItemsOptionListType="CheckList"  IsOptionElementsEnabled="True"  IsRootLinesEnabled="True" SelectionChanged="OrgTree_SelectionChanged" Selected="OrgTree_Selected"  Checked="OrgTree_Checked" Unchecked="OrgTree_Unchecked"

HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Top" Margin="10" x:Name="OrgTree"  IsTriStateMode="True" ItemTemplate="{StaticResource Org}"

Expanded="OrgTree_Expanded" PreviewExpanded="OrgTree_PreviewExpanded"/>

        public void DDS_OrgOrderList_LoadedData(object sender, LoadedDataEventArgs e)
        {
            var myOrgLists = e.Entities;

            Member m = new Member();


            Org _root;
            Org _pOrg;
            Org _cOrg;





            m.Add(_root = new Org(1, "root", 1, 0, "0",null,""));

            int _level = 0;
            _pOrg = _root;

            foreach (OrgOrderList anOrg in myOrgLists)
            {

                if (anOrg.treepath.Length == 1)
                {
                    continue;
                }
                else if (anOrg.level != _level)
                {


                    for (int f = 1; f < (anOrg.treepath.Length - 1) / 8; f++)
                    {

                        int _index = Int32.Parse(anOrg.treepath.Substring(1 + (f-1) * 8, 8)) - 1;
                        _pOrg = _pOrg.Orgs[_index];

                    }

                }

                _level = anOrg.level;



                _cOrg = new Org(anOrg.orgID, anOrg.orgName, (int)anOrg.orgTypeID, anOrg.level, anOrg.treepath,anOrg.personID,anOrg.pName);
                _pOrg.Orgs.Add(_cOrg);



            }

            OrgTree.ItemsSource = m;





        }

Additional remarks:

Now, I need to foreach my treeview:"OrgTree", but I don't know how to transform the node(type:Org;;

HomePage.Title x in TeamTree.Items{}

) to the type of RadTreeViewItem (because only do this,I can set CheckState for node).

Hi Eric Zeng,

In your case I' suggest you use ContainerBinding. Basically it binds a property of the container (RadTreeViewItem in this case) to a property from the business model, like this:

<telerik:ContainerBindingCollection x:Name="BindingsCollection">
            <telerik:ContainerBinding PropertyName="CheckState" Binding="{Binding IsSelected,
               Mode=TwoWay, Converter={StaticResource CheckStateConverter}}"/>
</telerik:ContainerBindingCollection>

More information on how to use ContainerBindings to set the CheckState property of the RadTreeViewItems, you can find here.

However, if your scenario requires you to search through the ItemsSource collection of the RadTreeView,  what you can do, after you find an item that has to be checked, is the following:
path = anOrg.ToString();
RadTreeViewItem targetItem = treeView.GetItemByPath(path);
targetItem.CheckState = System.Windows.Automation.ToggleState.On;

You can also take a look at the project I attached. It illustrates how to set the CheckState property of the RadTreeViewItems using ContainerBindings. It also demonstrates how to search through the ItemsSource collection of a RadTreeView and highlight and expand the items that match the search criteria.

Please let me know if you need more info or if your scenario requires a different approach.

does this method support isVirtualizing=true?

if not how can i bind the checkbox in a treeview with my data?

[Tina Stancheva]

Hi Loring Vogel,

Yes, you can use ContainerBinding to configure which TreeViewItems to be checked in a RadTreeView with an IsVirtualizing  property set to True.

Please let us know if you have any issues with it or if you need more info.
