How to refresh the treeview context menu when a folder is "ARCHIVED" in RadFileExplorer

[Ajay]

Hi Telerik Guys !

Im using RAD FILE EXPPLORER Control in one of my project.

I have implemented the ARCHIVE BUTTON in the tree context menu of the RAD FILE EXPLORER.

When I clicked on to the  "ARCHIVED" button, the FOLDER from the TREE CONTEXT MENU gets archived in the database but the folder does not gets deleted form the TREENODE. 

I can only delete/archive that folder when I refresh my entire webpage.

Please help how to delete/archive(not to show) that folder with in the TREE CONTEXT MENU in RADFILE EXPLORER.

Please help

Hi Ajay,

In your scenario you need to set the directory (oExplorer.set_currentDirectory()) which needs to be refreshed and then call the refresh() method of the RadFileExplorer control. This method refreshes the currently selected folder. For your convenience i have attached a demo to this thread.

I hope this helps.

All the best,

Hi,

I'm also trying to manually refresh the FileExplorer but without I'm not having success. I get a javascript error stating that neither set_currentDirectory() or refresh() is a valid method. I'm using version 2009.01.0402.35. Are these methods only available in a later version?

Thank you,
Peter

Hello Peter,

The methods exist in the version 2009.01.402.35 and I am not quite sure what is causing the errors on your case. Could you please rework the attached demo project in order to replicate your setup, open a new support ticket and send it back? I will check it and do my bets to provide a solution as soon as possible.
