Gridview SelfReference Hierarchy Filtering

[Ravindra Mishra]

Hi,I have implemented a mixed mode hierarchy in my grid similar to this example
http://blogs.telerik.com/blogs/posts/11-03-07/re_mixed_hierarchy_mode_in_radgridview_for_winforms.aspx
Is it possible to assign a defaultivew of my "Folders" datatable as the source for my grid so that i can display only selected folders based on certain conditions.
I want to filter the defaultview of the table programatically so that the grid gets automaticaly updated.
The filtering option cannot be shown to the user.

Hi Ravindra Mishra,

Thanks for writing.

Presently, the filtering option works only for the first-level records of the self-reference hierarchy and for the classic hierarchy records. At the moment it is not possible to achieve the desired scenario. We will consider this limitation in one of the next releases.

Let me know if you have further questions.

Best wishes,

Hi,

We implemented the self reference hierarchy in two grids and also noticed that the filtering function only works for the first-level records. Do you have any idea when this feature will be available? Or is there already a work around?

Many thx!

Hello Maarten,

I cannot provide you with a concrete time-frame in which we will implement this feature. Nevertheless, you can vote for it in our public issue tracking system. If many customers require it, we will increase its priority in our task list.

All the best,

Any news on filtering a hierarchical grid (self-reference)?

It is something I thought would have been in there :(
Can it be done yet?

Thanks

Hi Paul,

Thank you for contacting us.

This functionality is supported by RadGridView. Please note, however, that if a particular child is visible, all of its parents will be visible also.

I have enclosed a small project where I have enabled the filtering functionality in a self-reference grid.

I hope this helps. Should you have any other questions do not hesitate to ask.

Regards,
George
