[Solved] Hide the detail template chevron column

[Chris]

Is there an easy way to hide the entire detail template expansion chevron and associated column? We'd like to control the expansion through other means.

Hello Chris,

There isn't built-in way of doing this. You can however remove hierarchical col elements and hide hierarchical cells inside dataBound event:

dataBound: function() {
 this.wrapper.find(".k-hierarchy-col").remove();//remove col elements for hierarchy column
 this.wrapper.find(".k-hierarchy-cell").hide();//remove cell elements for hierarchy column
},

Here is an example for this: http://dojo.telerik.com/@rusev/AsEVO.
