Collapse all rows by default and show expand/collpase images for all rows having child rows

[Krishnan LN]

Hi,
Im using the self referencing grid. By default all the rows are in expanded state but i want to collapse all rows and expand only on click.
I want to use Plus/Minus image instead of default button. But the plus/minus image appears only for parent row amd for the rest normal button is shown.

Following is the aspx grid definition

    <telerik:RadPageView ID="RadPageView2" runat="server">
        <table border="0" visible= "false" width="100%">
 <LNWCon:LNGrid ID="grdOrganization" EnableAJAX="True" ShowHeader="true" runat="server"
Width= "97%" GridLines="None" OnColumnCreated="grdOrganization_ColumnCreated" OnItemCreated="grdOrganization_ItemCreated"
           OnNeedDataSource= "grdOrganization_NeedDataSource" OnItemDataBound = "grdOrganization_ItemDataBound" OnItemCommand="grdOrganization_ItemCommand" Skin="Black" AutoGenerateColumns="False" >
           <MasterTableView HierarchyDefaultExpanded="true" HierarchyLoadMode="Client" NoDetailRecordsText="No Records To Display" EnableNoRecordsTemplate="false"
               DataKeyNames= "FolderId,ParentFolderId" Width="100%" HorizontalAlign="Right" ExpandCollapseColumn-ButtonType="ImageButton" ExpandCollapseColumn-CollapseImageUrl="../Images/minus.png" ExpandCollapseColumn-ExpandImageUrl="../Images/plus.png"  ExpandCollapseColumn-Visible="true">

Any help is appreciated.

Hello Krishnan LN,

You can have a table in your grid collapsed after each postback by setting the HierarchyDefaultExpanded property of the respective MasterTableView/GridTableView to false.

As to changing the Expand / Collapse images you should use the following CSS rules:

<style type="text/css">
        .rgExpand
        {
            background: url('MyImageFolder/MyExpandedImage.gif') center center no-repeat !important;
        }
        .rgCollapse
        {
            background: url('MyImageFolder/MyCollapsed.gif') center center no-repeat !important;
        }
    </style>

I hope this helps,
Martin
