Hi all. Basically the problem is that I'm trying to hide a detail if a certain field is zero. I tried using ConditionalFormatting but when I set the style to invisible, it doesn't work because the detail is invisible by default. The visibility of the detail is being controlled by an Action to toggle visibility in a textbox in another group. Is there an easy way to work around this?

I'm trying to use the Bindings property of the detail I want to hide on this condition. Here's what I'm trying to do:

=IIF(SUM(Fields.AnsweredCall) = 0, false, IIF(Telerik.Reporting.Processing.textBox49.Action = true, true, false))

How can I check from within this expression whether or not the textbox has been toggled to show the detail?

Hello Steve,

Bindings are reevaluated on every collapse/expand action, so if you use binding to set the detail section visibility, or use the data binding events or other binding to set the DisplayExpandedMark property of the item having the toggle action, on every collapse/expand you will need to remember the items states - visibility or DisplayExpandedMark, in order to change only the desired one.
If you need such functionality, our Rad Grid control would be a better choice.

If you have further questions, please elaborate on the user case.

All the best,
Stef
