Hierarchical RadGridView

[Chirag]

I am using Winform Q2 2008 SP 1 controls

I am currently working with RADGridView. According to the documentation on the tool by Telerik, “RadGridView can display hierarchical, master-detail data to an arbitrary number of levels”.  I have achieved this and successfully can show this data in hierarchical format. The problem is that I am able to do is only upto 3 levels.

 

I have 2 questions.

            1.) Is it possible for me to show more than 3 relationships? When I click on drill button, I see nothing open up, seems like blank line under level 3.
            2.) If more relationship is possible, why am I not able to see it? Is it because my child grid one height needs to be expanded? I have tried to expand this without any luck can you please show me which property I need set to expand the height of child grid one.

            

Thanks for all your help. I really appreciate it.

Hello Chirag,

I am glad to hear to your issue is resolved. However, I would like to answer your questions, since there could be more people interested on this matter.

Generally, as described in our documentation, RadGridView supports multiple levels of hierarchy. The reason why you do not see level 3 is because there is not enough space to show the child grid info.

As to the resizing, you can resize a GridViewInfo by a drag and drop operation. To do so, put your mouse cursor in the GridRowHeader column at the bottom line of the GridViewInfo that you want to resize. A prompting cursor will be shown to inform you about the resizing possibility at that point. Resize the GridViewInfo and you will be able to see the child GridViewInfo.

I hope this helps. If you have additional questions. Feel free to contact me.

All the best,

Hi pedro,

Currently, RadGridView does not support building a hierarchy when it is in Virtual Mode. I will discuss this with the dev team for possible implementation in the future.

If you have additional questions, feel free to contact me.

Hi,

I having same problem also, my second child grid unable to show. If i only add my second grid to the mastergrid, it can show, when i put 2 childgrid together, it unable to show the second grid. Can i know what is the solution for this issue?

note: my 2 childgrid is at the same level.

e.g.
Master
   - Child1
   - Child2

Hi Choong Zin Jye,

Currently, RadGridView does not support the desired functionality. Two different templates cannot be shown at one level of hierarchy. We have this feature request in our issue tracking system, but I cannot provide you with any specifc time frame when it will be implemented.

If you have additional questions, feel free to contact me.

Kind regards,

Hi,

Ahh, I wanted to do the same as Choong Zin Jye.

E.g. Have a Table with

Master (Category, CommonInfo, Blah)
- Child 1 (Category, Specific_Info_Field_1, ...)
- Child 2 (Category, Specific_Info_Field_2, ...)

So I could have a different child table for different categories.

Looks like it can't be done?
That's a pity.

Thanks

Hello David,

Indeed, the desired feature is not currently implemented. Because of our tight schedule regarding other important features and fixes, I cannot provide you with any specific time frame on when this feature will be introduced.

If you have additional questions, feel free to contact me.

Hi telerik,

I Really miss this feature,

Especially since the On design time interface suggests that it is OK.

Any date now booked?

Thanks.

Hello Sylvain Langlade,

Thank you for your vote. Unfortunately, we do not have any date set for the desired feature. Currently, we are focused on our new RadDock control and on performance and memory footprint improvements. You can review our Q2 RoadMap here.

As soon as Q2 is released, we will start making plans for our next major release and will reconsider the priority of the RadGridView feature.
