Hello,

Im trying the trail of Telerik currently. I'm very pleased with ur product and we will most likely buy a developer licence soon.
I have a question.

When dragging a node is it possible to not select the node.

eg:

I have a treeview with lots of nodes. A user can select a node and then the details screen is shown on the right.
When a node is selected the user can drag another node to a grid on the right screen.

The problem i have is that the node that was left clicked should stay selected.
But when u start to drag another node, this dragged node gets the selected style.

Is it possible to leave the selected style to the node that was left clicked?

Thanks in advance

Hi Jamie,

Sorry for the late response!
I've tried to compensate this by providing you with full example just for your requirements.

It holds one constraint (my solution), though:
- You have to use the NodeClicked event to remember the last clicked node (in the solution I am trapping it client-side, by you can use the server-side if needed);

Anyway, I think that you already have implemented it as required and even if you didn't it will be fairly easy to migrate (just to handle different event with the same handler).

Here is the complete example:
<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="Default.aspx.cs" Inherits="_Default" %>
 
<%@ Register Assembly="Telerik.Web.UI" Namespace="Telerik.Web.UI" TagPrefix="telerik" %>
 
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
 
<head runat="server">
    <title></title>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <div>
     
    <asp:ScriptManager runat="server">
    </asp:ScriptManager>
 
    <script type="text/javascript">
        var lastSelectedNode;
 
        function onNodeClicked(sender,args)
        {
            lastSelectedNode=args.get_node();
            var label=$telerik.$("#label");
            label.text(lastSelectedNode.get_text() + "clicked!");
        }
 
        function onNodeDragging(sender,args)
        {
            if(lastSelectedNode)
            {
                lastSelectedNode.set_selected(true);
            }
        }
 
        function onNodeDropped(sender,args)
        {
            var tree=sender;
             
            var destinationNodeDomElement = args._domEvent.target;
             
            var destinationNode=tree._extractNodeFromDomElement(destinationNodeDomElement);
            var destinationNodeNodes=destinationNode.get_nodes();
 
            var droppedNodes = args.get_sourceNodes();
            var droppedNodesCount = droppedNodes.length;
 
            for(var i=0;i<droppedNodesCount;i++)
            {
                destinationNodeNodes.add(droppedNodes[i]);
            }
        }
    </script>
 
    <telerik:RadTreeView runat="server" ID="treeView" EnableDragAndDrop="true" OnClientNodeClicked="onNodeClicked" OnClientNodeDragging="onNodeDragging" OnClientNodeDropped="onNodeDropped">
        <Nodes>
            <telerik:RadTreeNode AllowDrag="false" Text="Root">
                <Nodes>
                    <telerik:RadTreeNode Text="Child 1" />
                    <telerik:RadTreeNode Text="Child 2" />
                    <telerik:RadTreeNode Text="Child 3" />
                    <telerik:RadTreeNode Text="Child 4" />
                    <telerik:RadTreeNode Text="Child 5" />
                    <telerik:RadTreeNode Text="Child 6" />
                </Nodes>
            </telerik:RadTreeNode>
        </Nodes>
    </telerik:RadTreeView>
 
    <span>
        <asp:Label runat="server" ID="label" />
    </span>
 
    </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

Hope this is going to help you!
