Hi!
I have the following data structure:
A tree of objects of the same type. The number of children is not fixed nor the depth of the branches.
I want to be able to sort one selected node's children by some property. By default in TreeListView the sorting effects the whole tree.
So the result view should contain a header for every opened node to allow the user to sort every opened node's children by an arbitrary property.
This view is similar to a GridView with hierarchical child grids in arbitrary depth.
Which control should I use and how can I do this?
(I didn't find any demo similar enough to my goal to start the work from it)
Sorry for bad English,
Thanks for the answers!

Hi,
I would recommend RadGridView with custom RowDetails template. I am attaching a sample project that demonstrates such scenario.

I want arbitrary deep hierarchy of objects where all the objects are from the same type.
So your sample project doesn't provide a solution to my problem.
Could You take one more look at it?

Hello,
It seems that both controls are not very suitable out of the box, but with certain modifications you can achieve the desired result. Basically, you can display arbitrary hierarchy level by setting RowDetailsTemplate on each of the nested RadGridViews. Overriding the default sorting behavior of RadTreeListView to sort only the root level items would be more complex task and it may interfere with other core features of RadTreeListView, so I would still recommend RadGridView.
