Context menu item click on tree node double click

[Geoffrey Smith]

Hello,

My tree view has got nodes with context menu item "Edit node". I'd like to trigger the same event (simulate clicking on the context menu item) by double clicking on the node in the tree.

Is it possible? Please help ...

Hi Kamil,

Currently this is not possible. Double clicking a node can enter edit mode if this is enabled and will fire the OnClientDoubleClick client-side event. You can subscribe to that event and execute the code which is currently run when the user clicks the "Edit" item.

Hi Albert,

Can you please post a quick example how to subscribe or even trigger to the context menu item click event so I can trigger it somewhere else?

I assume it will be something like:

function RadTree_DoubleClick(sender, eventArgs) {
    var node = eventArgs.get_node();    
    node.get_contextMenu().get_allItems()[0].click();                     
}

Thank you,
Kamil

Hi Geoffrey Smith,

Here is a sample implementation:

            function onDoubleClick(sender, args) {
                var node = args.get_node();
                var contextMenu = sender.get_contextMenus()[0];
               
                sender._contextMenuNode = node;
               
                var item = contextMenu.findItemByText("Edit");
               
                item.click();
            }

The highlighted code is important.

All the best,
