Hierarchical selection of parents whose childs are selected

[Vinayak]

Hello experts,

I have one requirement in grid view where, I wanted to show parents as selected whose child is selected. For e.g. I have one hierarchical structure where

Parent 1 has one child and this child has one more child (Grandchild) likewise....

Now when I select Grandchild or child, its respective parents should also get selected/highlighted.  

 So, I have following questions-

1) Is there any property/method available which I can use it in Xaml to achieve this?

2) If not, then what will be the recommended approach to do this (sample example, with code will be appreciated)?

 

Thanks in Advance,

Vinayak

Hi Vinayak,

As to your questions:
1. There is not such a property or any built-in option. You can refer to the ​Selection section in our online documentation.
2. You can try extending the existing functionality by subscribing for the SelectedChanged event on each details level and handle it as per your requirements. 

You can also check the following forum thread: RadGridView - Hierarchy - Selected Parents and Childs.
