Edit TreeView Node

[Anthony]

I am able to set the TreeView to editable, IsEditable = true, but I cannot find a way to create a custom edit template.  How can I specify a specific template for editing?

Thanks!

Hello Anthony,

At the moment, RadTreeView does not support custom templates for editing mode. You can, however, change it if you change the whole RadTreeViewItem control template. There is a commented line that shows which is the element that shows whether treeview is in edit mode.

//RadTreeViewItem template.

<!-- Edit element -->
<Border Visibility="Collapsed" Grid.Column="4" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Center" Background="#0C000000" CornerRadius="3,3,3,3" Width="Auto" BorderThickness="1" x:Name="EditElementContainer" BorderBrush="#7FFFFFFF">
   <Border Height="Auto" CornerRadius="2,2,2,2" Width="Auto" BorderThickness="1" BorderBrush="#3E000000">
      <TextBox x:Name="EditElement" BorderThickness="0"/>
   </Border>
</Border>

Please, keep in mind that the name of the elements (x:Name="...") should be the same and the element with x:Name="EditElement " should be TextBox.

This is definitely something that we should improve in the next versions.

Thanks for your feedback. We updated your points as per our EAP Program.

Hi,

I tried to change the treeviewitem template using the code from the examples, specifically the CustomLayout.xaml example. However, I'm not able to put the edit-itemplate the way I want to.
And when I try to edit the template for a treeviewitem in Expression Blend, I just get an empty ControlTemplate.
Is it possible to retrieve the entire default control template for the treeview items? (Like on MSDN, you'll find a default control template for e.g. a listboxitem.)
So I can start editing the specific items in that template.

Regards,

Tim

Hi Valentin,

Thank you very much for the quick response.
Those templates will be very helpfull.

It might be usefull to integrate the default templates for all controls in the helpfiles.
Just an idea... :)

Kind Regards,

Tim
