[Solved] Full Expand & Readonly

[bill]

I would like my panel to always have every item expanded.  I would also like to prevent users from clicking on the panel.  I am binding the panel to a site map, and I want the user to be able to see where they're at in the wizard, but I don't want them to navigate via the panel.  Are there properties I can set to allow this?

Hello Bill,

You can try the following code snippet in order to expand all the items.
CS:

    protected void RadPanelBar1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        foreach(RadPanelItem item in RadPanelBar1.GetAllItems() )
        {
            if (item.Items.Count>0)
            {
                item.Expanded = true;
            }
        }
    }

Attach the 'OnClientItemClicking' event to RadPanelBar and use the args.set_cancel(true) in order to cancel the event.
JavaScript:

<script type="text/javascript">
    function OnClientItemClicking(sender, args) {
        args.set_cancel(true);
    }
</script>

Thanks,
Princy.

Thank you for your resopnse.  How would I attach the RadPanelBar to the javascript function?

Hello Bill,

You could simply assign the name of the javascript function as the value of the the corresponding RadPanelBar property.

ASPX:

<telerik:RadPanelBar ID="RadPanelBar1" runat="server" OnClientItemClicking="OnClientItemClicking" >
 ...
</telerik:RadPanelBar>

Regards,
Princy.
