Find node by id client-side

[Cezary]

Welcome,

I want to know how can I find node in orgChart by id on client-side using javascript. I tried get_nodes() method but I don't know how can I get simple node from this collection.

Hi Cezary,

You can access the needed GroupItem or Node by its index value. Here is an exmaple code demonstrating that:

var orgChart1 = $find("RadOrgchart1");
//gets the first node with index zero
orgChart1 .get_nodes().getNode(0);
//gets the second GroupItem with index 1
orgChart1.get_nodes().getNode(0).get_groupItems().getGroupItem(1);

Is it possible to do sth like this:
I need find node by DataFieldID and get its Hierarchical Index and then run drillDownOnNode method for this node index. Everything I want to do on client-side.

Hi,

You could use the client side method drillDownOnNode of RadOrgChart and pass the hierarchical index(e.g "0:0:1") of the node that you want to be drilled. The drill down feature is useful in case that you want to observe a particular branch of the hierarchy.
